entertaining but superficial

I enjoyed Jeff Green's earlier books in his A-Z series, but I was slightly disappointed with this one. This book is as funny as the others, but I'm not sure a comedian is the best person to ask for advice about prospective parenthood in all its aspects. I was surprised by the array of feelings that pregnancy induces (for the man as well as the woman). Most books for men tend to skim over the complexities and hide behind jokes. The best book for men that I've come across so far is 'From Here To Paternity (The Diary of a Pregnant Man)' which is remarkably honest as well as funny. And The Rough Guide To Pregnancy by Kaz Cooke is also forthright as well as funny about the whole experience, from a woman's point of view.
