Haynes Baby Manual - Ian Banks ... new car (at least for most people). It can also be more worrying - after all, if you decide you've made a mistake you can't send the baby back to the factory or trade it in for another one. Conception, pregnancy and birth can nowaddays be associated with some very high-tech equipment, but underneath the monitors and scanner screens the basic process is the same as it ever was (just as the internal combustion engine itself has not changed, despite being surrounded by electronic sensors and control units). This manual gives you what you would expect from Haynes: down-to-earth, step-by-step instructions, written by professionals from practical experience. The manual should help you to: decide when and how to start; keep your cool in the delivery room; maintain baby's bodywork in optimum condition; prevent corrosion of vital parts; understand the on-board diagnostic system; and decide when to call in professional assistance.

After writing about lots of DVDs and video games, I decided it was time to do a write up on something completely different... THE HAYNES BABY MANUAL The Haynes... What? Baby what?!? Baby Manual... For those of you who are not very acquainted with Haynes manuals (much like myself), these are a series of books that are mostly aimed at car maintenance and repairs and DIY. The Haynes manuals are named after John Haynes (OBE) who wrote and published a manual on building an Austin 7 Special in 1956.
