This book is not intended to teach you how to diagnose or treat yourself. The author wants to give you only a general idea of the child and his needs. True, for those parents who, due to exceptional circumstances, find it difficult to get to a doctor, some sections give advice on first aid. Better the advice of a book than no advice! But one cannot rely only on a book if one can get real medical help.
I also want to stress that everything in this book should not be taken too literally. There are no similar children, just as there are no similar parents. Diseases in children proceed differently; The problems of upbringing also take on different forms in different families. All I could do was describe only the most general cases. Remember that you know your child well, and I do not know him at all.
Benjamin McLane Spock is a famous American pediatrician whose cult book The Child and Care, published in 1946, is one of the biggest bestsellers in US history. After graduating from school, he entered Yale University, where he first studied English and literature, was fond of sports. He was engaged in academic rowing, as part of the US team, he became the Olympic champion at the 1924 Olympic Games in Paris. Spock then chose medicine as his calling.
