Synopsis

NUTRITION AND DIET THERAPY is the only text organized by diets rather than by organ systems or disease states and distinguishes itself through rich pedagogical features. It provides core nutrition concepts and clinical content at a level that is accessible to the range of health care team members who are responsible for a client's nutrition needs. The text provides the basic facts and a wealth of practical information readers need to assume their responsibility for nutrition care.

Review:

"As usual, the revision does an excellent job of striking a balance between updating the previous edition relative to new research and maintaining the wonderful writing style that students (and others!) find so enjoyable to read. This has been consistent for as long as I've been reading the text, and that dates back to my first book."
