xviii, 447, 159 pages illustrations (chiefly colored) 23 centimeters. "This text is designed primarily for students and health workers in beginning assistance-level programs for practical or licensed vocational nurses (LVNs), as well for diet technicians or diet aides. As in previous editions, it assumes a limited background in nutrition-related basic sciences, so basic concepts are carefully explained when introduced. But with the changing public health awareness, it also assumes an expanded general base in nutrition and health. Thus, building on this interest, its general purpose is to introduce some basic principles of scientific nutrition and present their applications in person-centered care in health and disease. In addition, my personal concerns are ever present: (1) that this introduction to the science and practice I love will continue to lead students and readers to enjoy learning about human nutrition in the lives of people, and stimulate further reading in personal interest areas; (2) that these caretakers will be alert to nutrition news and to questions raised by their increasingly diverse clients and patients; and that contact and communication with professional nutrition resource persons will help build a strong team approach to clinical nutrition problems in all patient care".
