dry as toast,
By Anonymous (boston, ma) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Community Nutrition in Action: An Entrepreneurial Approach, 4th edition (Hardcover)
if this isnt required for a course, i would highly discourage anyone from purchasing this book. contains necessary information but is poorly written (does not flow well, authors try to use informal language) and is structured in a way that is not conducive to learning.

By Katie "book worm" (Lorton, VA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Community Nutrition in Action: An Entrepreneurial Approach, 4th edition (Hardcover)
I found this book to be informative with many good graphics and photos. There are a lot of statistics and many internet links provided for further information or research.

This review is from: Community Nutrition in Action: An Entrepreneurial Approach (Hardcover)
I used this textbook while pursuing both my undergraduate and graduate degrees. I still refer to it often for all of its useful statistics, references, and guidelines for program design. I think it is well-written and not at all dry like some textbooks can be. In addition to a wealth of information and resources, this book also contains useful advice for the aspiring community nutritionist. Highly recommended.
