Case studies help you determine nutritional interventions in treating both acute and chronic conditions. Written by nutrition specialists Joyce Gilbert and Eleanor D. Schlenker, this book includes the latest advances in research and evidence-based practice. Strong community focus includes robust coverage of health promotion, cultural competence, patient safety, lifespan, and public health issues.
