Review from previous edition A great introduction to basic nutrition, diet, factors influencing dietary choice, dietary needs through the life course, and a taster of how diet and poor nutrition can be both a cause and a consequence of disease.
An essential textbook for any introductory course in nutrition.
A comprehensive, well written, and relevant textbook which provides an excellent overview of the current field of human nutrition.
