The British Dietetic Association and the publishers of the Manual of Dietetic Practice present an essential and authoritative reference series on the evidence base relating to advanced aspects of nutrition and dietetics in selected clinical areas. Each book provides a comprehensive and critical review of key literature in the area. Each covers established areas of understanding, current controversies and areas of future develop- ment and investigation, and aims to address key themes, including: • mechanisms of disease and its impact on nutritional status, including metabolism, physiology and genetics • consequences of disease and undernutrition, including morbidity, mortality and patient perspectives • clinical investigation and management • nutritional assessment, drawing on anthropometric, biochemical, clinical and dietary approaches • nutritional and dietary management of disease and its impact on nutritional status. Trustworthy, international in scope and accessible, Advanced Nutrition and Dietetics is a vital resource for a range of practitioners, researchers and educators in nutrition and dietetics, including dietitians, nutritionists, doctors and specialist nurses.
