Finally a parenting book that expectant fathers will actually read!<P>In <I>The New Dad from A to Z</i>, author and filmmaker Dan Consiglio offers freaked-out, first-time dads-to-be an honest, bar-table discussion about the reality that awaits them. No guilt trips, no only-parents-get-it inside jokes, no inane sarcasm, just the straight dope refreshingly mixed with some offbeat humor to ease the crippling anxiety.<P>Feeling less like reading a book and more like having a conversation with a friend over a good beer, <I>The New Dad from A to Z</i> cuts through all the silliness, scare tactics, and obfuscation found in other books targeting dads-to-be, instead giving them as close of a reality dose as they can handle before that bundle of joy drops into their world.
