Summary: A Fun, Enjoyable Read
Review: I saw the author featured on CBS News Sunday with Charles Osgood on Mother's Day. He was really funny on the show, and when the reporter said that this book sold over 50,000 copies based on word of mouth alone, since I hadn't been able to get through any of the books my wife purchased for me, I figured I'd give this one a shot. I'm glad I did. While other pregnancy books for men are earnest/endearing works of 200 plus pages, which of course makes them impossible to get through, this one hits on the issues most men really want and need to know, and is written in a very fluid, lighthearted manner. It's a quick, fun read. If you're looking for a deep, detailed, and comprehensive text on pregnancy, there are plenty of other books to choose from (see "What to Expect," or "The Expectant Father." But if you don't have much time to read a lengthy book about the subject of pregnancy but want to feel better informed - and have a few laughs in the process - this book is a great choice.

Summary: One star for the ink and paper...
Review: This book is supposed to be funny, but frankly, it is not. Additionally, it falls into the typical cliches that men don't know anything about anything when it comes to pregnancies and babies, and that somehow they are emotionally or mentally challenged in these matters.But the worse part about this book, is not even its condescendence, but rather the complete lack of in-depth information the rare times it brings up subjects of interest. The book is like 12 pages long and is read in half an hour. It's like an expensive pamphlet. Don't waste your money!
