Editorial Reviews

"What you have done is an overwhelming job-there is nothing that even approaches this in the foods and nutrition field. It will become a classic."
—GEORGE M. BRIGGS, Ph.D.
University of California, Berkely

"This encyclopedia fills a serious gap, making sound, accessible and readable nutritional information available to all who are interested. Well organized and authoritative, this is an exceptional work."
—DAVID DOWIS, M.D.
Fresno, California

"I find Foods & Nutrition Encyclopedia just the book I need to provide accurate and quick information. I not only plan to recommend this book as a must for my graduate students, but as an excellent reference for nutritionists in other countries where I work. This is the type of reference health workers have needed for a long time.
—Dr. MARY F. FUTRELL
Mississippi State University
