About the Author :
Berdanier; Carolyn D. Professor Emerita, University of Georgia, Athens, Georgia, U,

Review :
"The text is very well written, has up-to-date information, and describes all the medical terms relating to nutrition. This volume is an absolutely essential addition to any science library, and is recommended reading not only for health field workers but also for students interested in health careers." -Choice, September 1998 "The intention is to give the time-pressed reader the data arranged in alphabetical order quickly and concisely. From my point of view, conception and choice of terms are successfully solved. The short entries and particularly the longer articles are quick and useful sources of information." -A. Taufel, Nahrung "The brief, rather than comprehensive, tables on medicinal herbs and poisonous plants that the book contains are interesting and potentially useful." -Darwin Deen, MD., Physician's Bookshelf
