Product Description

Review

"The book does exactly what it says on the cover, explaining the fundamentals of human nutrition to those wanting to understand a complex and ever-developing topic." Nursing Older People, July 2010

"If you only read one book on nutrition make sure it is this one." Primary Health Care, July 2010

Product Description

"Fundamentals of Human Nutrition" is an authoritative overview that will help you understand the complex subject of human nutrition. This book is a digest of material from the highly successful "Human Nutrition, 11th Edition". "Fundamentals" is intended for a wide readership of students and practitioners who need a broad understanding of human nutrition, but for whom an in-depth knowledge is not essential. Students and practitioners of nursing, pharmacy, sports science, dentistry and other allied health professions, as well as the interested lay person, will benefit from its easy-to-follow, concise approach.

Fundamentals of Human Nutrition for Students - Powers/Geissler 21 Jan 2010

By Ms. Gemma K. Watford

Format:Paperback

The book is as it says, concise straightforward, and very relevant for the changing world of the healthcare environment. I used to be a healthcare assistant, and would recommend it to anyone starting in the care sector for the first time, as I didn't have the luxury of access to such information when I started out 3 years ago.

Good buy 15 April 2011

By miss m mcnamara

Format:Paperback

A fantastic book, easy to follow and small enough to take anywhere. The book only contains the basic information about nutrition, but it does cover most aspects generally. Overall a good introductory book which doubles up as a reminder if you have read around the subject. A good investment!
