Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Essentials of Pediatric Nutrition
Patricia Queen Samour · 2011
78/100
👍 Worth It
Co-authored by a founding voice in pediatric dietetics, this condensed clinical reference covers an impressive range from preconception through adolescence and disease-specific nutrition in a single accessible volume. It's a practical working tool for dietetics students and clinicians rather than a comprehensive research text, and some guidance will require verification against more recent clinical guidelines. For its intended professional audience it delivers solid, authoritative content.
