A Good Enough Dad: The True Confessions of an Infant Father

Television comic actor Nigel Planer describes in hilarious detail what happened, after the arrival of his baby son, to Mr Big in his bachelor flat, who could stay out late, sleep in till noon, leave the dishes dirty and records all over the living-room floor. He also explains that nowadays fatherhood doesn't just mean a change of lifestyle - it requires an "attitude". It's no longer enough to wallpaper the nursery, pay the bills and wait in the hospital corridor. Treading a delicate path through the minefield of paternal worries, the book offers the wisdom of experience - the best you can hope to be is a good enough dad.
