Description and Table of Contents
Description
The Nutrition Society celebrated its 50th anniversary in 1991, and this book, presenting the stories and recollections of chairmen, presidents and honorary members, is published to mark the occasion. Written in a lively and popular style, the book provides a fascinating history of the careers of the leading figures in the development of the science of nutrition in the UK in the last half century. While the major scientific breakthroughs are well documented, readers will also find a great deal of information on the personalities and their formative years, research institutes and organizations that were behind these advances. Most contributions include a photograph and have been written by the presidents or honorary members themselves, but some have been contributed by other guest authors. The book should prove of interest to all concerned with the science of human and animal nutrition.
