"This book is of much importance as it empowers professionals involved in public health nutrition to perform their job best, and to make an important impact on people’s health. But it is also useful to all those in health professions.

Dr. Sari Edelstein's experience in this area, plus the expertise of the contributing authors, represents an enormous wealth of knowledge that they can share with the readers. The subjects discussed in this book are timely and significant, and make this text a must-have for both students and practitioners of public health nutrition."
