New Book for First-Time Dads Gives a Down-to-Earth Look at the Three Trimesters of Men

With workplaces seeing paternity leave as the new norm a newly released parenting book is right on time. Written for fathers by a father, "Pregnancy and Men: Your First Step Toward a Great Parenthood" is an every-man's look at life in the daddy zone. The men's health book is written by first-time author Pratik Patil who is an Internet ad man with a master's degree in computer science from USC. Not a medical guide to parenting, Patil's book is a homage to the men who support their ladies day-in and day-out on the harrowing road to baby makes three.
