by Barbara Wilson-Clay

ABOUT THE 7TH EDITION The Breastfeeding Atlas, 7th edition, has new photos and has been substantially re-written to reflect the most current research and best, evidence-based clinical practices. It also reflects the practical experience of Barbara Wilson-Clay, and Kay Hoover, both Fellows of the International Lactation Consultant Association, who have each been assisting mothers and babies for more than 30 years. A must-have text for students, candidates for the IBLCE (International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners) exam, and practitioners working in maternal-child health fields. Spiral binding permits book to open flat for easy study. The Breastfeeding Atlas was developed for students studying to become board certified lactation consultants and to help practicing clinicians support breastfeeding families. With 400 color photos and evidence-based management suggestions, The Atlas features the combined clinical wisdom of two of the field’s most experience LCs. Designed with coil binding for easy lie-flat studying, the Atlas is clearly written and fully referenced. Used internationally, and now translated into 3 languages, The Breastfeeding Atlas is an exceptional resource in the field of maternal-child health.

Read for school. This is a great resource for every lactation counselor/consultant and health professional. SO much good information.

One of my favorite resources for all things lactation care. I wish there was a second edition with more pictures and more case studies!

I read sixth edition. Absolutely essential to add to any Nicu, Midwife or LC work library collection.

Great for clinicians...this is full of pictures, and different interventions that would be helpful or required with unusual (and common) scenarios. It was quite helpful in studying for the IBCLC exam.
