I would not hesitate to use this seller again! The textbook was in perfect condition, arrived quickly (ahead of scheduled delivery) and was well-packaged. Thank you so much for making this book available at such a great price!!! Thanks!

The book was in GREAT condition. I feel the sale was resonable and expedient. I will definitely come back to this seller if I need anything else.

It is a book that will answer all your questions regarding Food, Diet and Nutrition exactly as its title suggests.My father is in a "Presistant Vegigative State" due to a massive hammerhadge, and thats what triggered me to look for a good book that will help me to deal with his special feeding requirment. Not only that I have found very valuable information concerning my fathers situation, but I also found excellent information for me and my wife so we followed a dietery program to loose some weight.Unfortunatly in 'Kuwait' where we live,we have very limited sources of information regarding Food and Nutrition so we needed a reference book that explains every term and has all information needed in details such as the tables and calculating formulas and soforth. In my opinion this is 'a most have book', and in the field of Nutrition it is 'Second-to-non'.

Krause's Food, Nutrition and Diet Therapy (eds; Mahan and Escott-Stump)10th ed is 1000% user friendly! Each chapter starts off with a glossary of terms in the ensuing pages which levels the learning field. Colorful charts on practical information are generously sprinkled in every chapter with clear illustrations on anatomy, energy reactions, and algorithms. You'll find lots of "ah ha" moments are you go through this book like I did. An example was the increased metabolic rate by adding spice to a meal! And the reference was also right there!Each author's excitment and passion for the topic covered comes through the pages loud and clear. Cleverly colored boxes of strategically placed information capture your eye and your mind! Another example.. in Chapter 6 on Water and Electrolytes.. the percentage loss of body water and degree of disability associated with the same could not be made any more obvious.. and you just don't forget the message. This resource covers everything from herbal therapies and rationale to heart transplant and all points in between. Over 1150 pages to get the new Millennium off to a smart start! I already know this book will be among the most used in my professional library. It is highly recommended.- Miriam Erick, MSRD, CDE, ACOG educational affiliate author: No More Morning Sickness (New American Library/Plume), Boston, MA.
