Great book for Nutrition Students
I bought this book for my final year and it's proved a really useful book to have. Not only is it a lot cheaper from Amazon but it's a lot smaller than the previous editions with a lot of the clinical nutrition taken out. it also comes with a cd-rom which contains a lot more in-depth reading, should you wish to know more. I've only just started my final year and already i've used it for various modules.

This book is great if you're a nutrition student rather than a dietetic student as a lot of the clinical information has been removed. An invaluable tool for anyone with an interest in nutrition and its related topics.
