Excerpt from Practical Dietetics: With Reference to Diet in Disease

It is hoped that a revised classification of food principles, greater emphasis on the value of mineral matter in the diet, and fuller discussion of the fundamental principles of nutri tion, will add much to the usefulness of the book.

Rese�a del editor

Excerpt from Practical Dietetics: With Reference to Diet in Disease

This work has been revised wherever necessary to incorporate the latest results of research in dietetics and embraces all the latest diets of leading physicians and hospitals.

The continuous demand for this work since its last complete revision in 1910 has resulted in the publication of successive editions almost annually until the time became ripe for another complete revision. The present edition, while preserving as far as possible the original plan of the work, incorporates a large amount of new material in harmony with the latest developments in the science and art of dietetics. Many sections on the treatment of the sick have been entirely rewritten to conform with present hospital practice.

The author takes this opportunity to acknowledge with thanks the valuable advice and assistance given by Mary Swartz Rose, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, Department of Nutrition. Teachers' College, Columbia University, New York City.

For suggestions and permission to use certain diets the author wishes to express her hearty appreciation to:

Dr. Frederick M. Allen, Physician to the Hospital of the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research, New York.

Dr. Herbert S. Carter, Consulting Physician to the Lincoln Hospital, Associate in Medicine at Columbia University and Assistant Visiting Physician to the Presbyterian Hospital, New York.

Dr. Warren Coleman, Professor of Clinical Medicine and Applied Pharmacology, Cornell University, Medical College. Visiting Physician to Bellevue Hospital, New York.
