Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2015
This book is a classic work and deserves a place in the library of every health conscious reader. Worthwhile to read from cover-to-cover but it is also worth keeping permanently as a reference. My doctor recommends that all his patients get and read this book and is so committed that he will lend out his personal copy to people who don't want to buy it. NUTRITION AND PHYSICAL DEGENERATION is the basic foundation for the Traditional Foods Movement and also the Paleo Movement. Weston Price is the father of solid, broad-spectrum nutrition and along with Adele Davis deserves attention from everyone who cares about good, functional health and longevity.
I also love this hardback edition. It is a long, heavy book and as such needs a high quality, stitched binding, sturdy hard cover, high end paper and clear, easy to read font that doesn't leave you squinting. This is a book to be read over and over again, and not just to display on a shelf. The quality of this particular edition is exactly what is needed for something you will want to refer to for a lifetime and pass on to your children. My first copy was one of the newer paperbacks, but it was creased and damaged right out of the box! Partly because it wasn't carefully packaged but also because a paperback isn't constructed for heavy use. I returned the flimsy paperback and sprung the necessary dollars to invest in this tough hardback edition that is made for long wear and will be there years and years from now.
Highly recommend this book and highly recommend investing in a quality edition.
