Last year consumers spent $4.5 billion on infant products such as portable cribs, cradles, infant carriers, and car seats. Today's parents, many of them older, dual income, and mobile, demand product features that fifteen years ago were unheard of: portable cribs that weigh only a few pounds and easily collapse for storage, car seats that double as infant carriers, over-sized strollers for parents who jog. Products, it turns out, that are too often inadequately tested and ultimately unsafe. Marla Felchers' two-year-long investigation has revealed case after case of infants and toddlers being seriously injured and killed by these products and case after case of manufacturers going to great lengths to cover this up. It's No Accident exposes the inner-workings of the infant products industry, highlighting the tactics used by corporate giants such as Hasboro (Playskool), Evenflo, Kolcraft, Cosco, Graco, and Century Products to keep consumers in the dark about their safety records.
