Emily Oster summaries

2 summaries on Durar

Emily Oster is an economist who brings the tools of her field to the questions that keep new parents up at night, sifting through the research so readers can see what the evidence actually says rather than what they have been told to fear. If you are expecting, begin with Expecting Better, which walks through the decisions of pregnancy calmly and clearly; if your little one has already arrived, start with Cribsheet, which picks up the story with feeding, sleep, screens and childcare and reads naturally as its sequel. Her books suit expecting mothers and young parents across the region who receive well-meaning advice from every relative and neighbour and want a steady, evidence-based way to weigh it and choose what fits their own family.
