Editorial Reviews

Review

`essentially a reference book, designed for "dipping into", with much of the information consolidated into tables' Aslib Book Guide, vol.62, no.7, July 1997

`the book's structure is excellent. There is an extensive reference list, a comprehensive index and thorough cross-referencing to other sections within the book and considerable attention to defining terms and interpreting information.' Australian Journal of Nutrition and Dietetics (1998) 55:2

provides an ideal source of nutrition information for both the generalist working in nutrition and nutrition students
