Community Nutrition: Applying Epidemiology to Contemporary PracticeJones & Bartlett Learning, 1996 - 601 pages This book is divided into three sections, each covering a certain level of understanding about disease progression and health care intervention. The first section addresses nutrition in U.S. communities and lays the groundwork for primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention; the second section focuses on primary prevention of disease by first addressing food-borne illness as a recurrent concern in a community and then discussing nutritional concerns of each age-specific group; and the third section and broadens the base of understanding of specific chronic diseases and the role of eating behavior in disease development. Written to fill the need for an intensive one-semester course in advanced community nutrition or nutritional epidemiology. |
