Historia
In 2017, author Shanna Swan and her team of researchers completed a major study. They found that over the past four decades, sperm levels among men in Western countries have dropped by more than 50 percent. They came to this conclusion after examining 185 studies involving close to 45,000 healthy men. The result sent shockwaves around the globe - but the story didn’t end there.

fear mongering camouflaging good information
Revisado: 10-28-21
too hard to parse useful and backed research from ideological possession in this book. some things are cited and reproducible which is amazing and the standard for research and then filled by her personal beliefs and anecdotes and shoddy quality research from other universities on unrelated topics.

Excellent, Entertaining, and Educational.
Revisado: 10-19-19
This book is jam packed with useful information and easy to digest with John Medina's usual fun and leisurely candor. I'm 25 and glad I'm reading it now but it's a good read for anyone of any age who wants to make sure they are one of those admirable people who seem "with it" until they die. It makes me marvel at my great grandmother who was competent and dementia free until her death at 92. This book is the instruction manual to one day leave this world with the grace that she did.

Historia
From his childhood in Waco, Texas, where he took expert care of nine small cousins while the adults ate Sunday lunch, to Princeton and an offer from Broadway, to medical and psychoanalytic training, to the exquisite observations into newborn behavior that led babies to be seen in an entirely new light, Dr. T. Berry Brazelton's life has been one of innovation and caring. Known internationally for the Touchpoints theory of regression and growth in infants and young children, Brazelton is also credited for bringing the insights of child development into pediatrics, and for his powerful advocacy in Congress.

Interesting Enough.
Revisado: 08-07-19
The begining is excellent of how he got his start his family life and his work overseas but there is a LOT of name dropping and self congratulating. towards the end it becomes about who he has met and worked with and all the programs he supports or helped create. I think I would have preferred something written by a compilation of his family members and co workers. he is humble enough that it is still readable and somewhat interesting. I wish he talked more about his research, what he learned from it and how, and what it means for child development and the science of it as a whole.

not the best book I've listened too. It's pretty accurate as far as data and observations go but Dr. twenge struggles to keep her bias for solutions and opinions out of the latter half of the book the first half she is very careful though. the interviews with igenners are very insightful

Insightful and Entertaining
Revisado: 04-04-18
There were a few audio issues with the recording but nothing that really gets in the way, or is persistently annoying. This book is full of great advice that is founded in well documented research. I already knew quite a bit of what he was talking about, as research is my profession, but he had insightful pieces of information I had not yet heard of and made connections I hadn't thought of. 10/10 would reccomend.
If you read Dr. Twenges book "the impatient woman's guide to getting pregnant" this is like the parenting version of a funny and interesting meta analysis. If you like Twenges work you will definitley like this book.

Historia
Finally, a housekeeping and organizational system developed for those of us who'd describe our current living situation as a "f--king mess" that we "really need to get around to fixing one day". Unf--k Your Habitat is for anyone who has been left behind by traditional aspirational systems - the ones that ignore single people with full-time jobs, people without kids but living with roommates, and people with mental illnesses or physical limitations. Most organizational books are aimed at stay-at-home moms and people who seem to have unimaginable amounts of free time.
