The links between nutrition and national development are complex, and developmental policies are often implemented without an appreciation of their nutritional implications. This long-needed study clarifies this relationship and examines the impact of government policy on nutrition. Nine
chapters, written by experts with broad experience in policy formulation and implementation, consider the nature of malnutrition, the impact of research and development on food supply, the effect of increased industrialization on agricultural output, and the need to integrate nutrition, health and
population programs. Two final chapters present case studies from India and Indonesia. The findings presented here will directly benefit policymakers and administrators concerned with developing nations and nutrition.
