I am a researcher and used this book to help me grasp the major issues and themes confronting marketers in understanding how moms make shopping decisions in order to construct a survey for a client. It is an excellent overview of contemporary parenting attitudes, the way mom's shopping behaviors change as their children get older, how different media are used to form opinions and make purchase decisions and so on. This is a huge topic of course, and the book is a very good overview with important and provocative thought starters. It can be read by anyone who is interested in the topic -- you do not have to be a researcher and you can be in the early stages of your career and still get a great deal from it. It is not super deep in any one area, but a great introduction to an increasingly critical topic.
