内容简介
简介:
The current status of human nutrition is clearly summarized in this three-volume set.
The editorial board and the contributors are highly respected academics and
practicing nutritionists from around the world. Topic coverage is extensive, ranging
from nutrition policies in developing countries to pregnancy and steatorrhea. Each
entry ranges from four to 48 pages in length and contains a list of contents,
references to related articles, and suggestions for further reading.
The intended readership is students, researchers, physicians, social workers,
and nutritionists, but the writing is such that the work is accessible to the lay
reader. An added feature is a web-accessible electronic version, which is available
to libraries at a minimal yearly fee and can be IP restricted for colleges and
universities (that is, the web page looks at the numerical Internet address of the
computer logging to the web page to make sure it‘s authorized to log in)。 The
main drawback is the high price, which puts the set out of the reach of most public
and small college libraries.
