Reviews

From the reviews: "A book for every medical library." - Pediatric Endocrinology Reviews "Nutrition and Bone Health is a comprehensive book, containing 36 chapters ... . Sixty-seven contributors from 10 countries participated in crafting the information in this thorough work. I particularly appreciated the chapters being divided into numbered sub-headings. This made it easy to take notes and locate material. ... There is much in this sweeping work that will appeal to the nutritional gerontologist or geriatrician. ... There is something in this reference for all health professionals, even policymakers." (Joseph M. Carlin, Journal of Nutrition for the Elderly, May, 2006)
