Controversies and Challenges
Optimal Maternal And Infant Nutrition, In Particular Breastfeeding, Is A Key National And International Focus Within Public Health. The Target Audience For This Book Has A Major Remit In Both Public Health And Nutrition. While There Are Texts That Focus Specifically Upon Nutrition Per Se, There Is A Lack Of Published Material Discussing Cutting Edge Research Related To The Short And Longer-Term Effects Of Nutrition, And Of The Nature Of The Relationship Between Mother And Infant As A Consequence Of Nutritive And Nurturing Behaviour. Rather Than Presenting A Descriptive Account Of Maternal And Infant Nutrition, Each Chapter Will Provide A Critical And Controversial Perspective. The Book Is Presented In Two Sections: Physiological Aproach To The Continuum Of Nutrition From Preconception Th Rough To Weaning And 2. Sociological Perspectives On The Most Contemporary And Controversial Issues Related To Maternal And Infant Nutrition. While The Book Is Broadly Separated Into Two Distinct Sections It Is Recognised That The Two Approaches Are Not Mutually Exclusive. The Authors Of Each Chapter Have Been Identified As Leaders In The Areas As Covered By Their Designated Chapters. |
