Description

A title in the "Mosby Series in Nutrition", this book is aimed at mothers, paediatric and occupational therapists and maternal-child nursing students, as well as students of nutrition. The goals of the book are to make sure that students have information to identify nutrition concerns and counsel parents, that they understand that some nutrition concerns are based on behavioural problems, oral motor incoordination and other factors, and that they should gain an appreciation of the value of the interdisciplinary approach in the field of nutrition.
