To all those who commented negatively on the book (and especially the person who voted me down):
Have you actually read it? And have you tried the methods? I have read the book, and can vouch for its methods. Yes, the baby cries, and you have to let it cry. It's not easy. But after a while, the baby stops and goes to sleep. And after a few nights (it took mine ~3 nights, with less crying each night), they learn to fall asleep by themselves.
Believe me, when you have a baby who needs its parents by its side for hours before going to sleep, you might view the book differently.
