The third edition has been fully revised in terms of content and presentation, and new topics such as clinical effectiveness, cognitive behavioural therapy and healthcare ethics have been included. From reviews of previous editions 'All sections of this book are excellently written and presented. In the introduction the editor states that its purpose is \"to provide the information dietitians need in order to use their skills effectively\". The production of such an authoritative source of essentially practical information on all aspects of dietetics fulfils this aim and the book can be recommended to qualified and student dietitians alike. Although the manual is clearly aimed at dietitians in clinical practice, it will be a useful reference source for all health care professionals with an interest in nutrition.

Health promotion is now an important aspect of general practice and community care. Shorter periods of hospitalisation, increased care of the chronically ill 'in the community' and the management of disorders like diabetes within general practice have meant that many more people now require specialised nutritional care. At the same time, rapid advances in nutrition have left some health professionals feeling that their dietary knowledge is inadequate. This book updates the reader on the relationships between diet and health and the use of diet in the management of disease. Topical but less familiar nutrients such as antioxidant vitamins or long-chain fatty acids are explained in ways that are easily understood. Adviceis given on the types on nutritional problems that can be successfully identified and managed in the primary-care setting and those that may require specialised dietetic help.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49648523968785,"sku":"GOR012209802","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49657290490129,"sku":"GOR004272212","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50339693527313,"sku":"GOR003796664","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51121084268817,"sku":"NIN9780632039814","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52487474381073,"sku":"NLS9780632039814","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0632039817.jpg?v=1751199269"},{"product_id":"manual-of-dietetic-practice-book-briony-thomas-9781405135252","title":"Manual of Dietetic Practice","description":"The standard work for all those involved in the field of clinical nutrition and dietetics, The Manual of Dietetic Practice has been equipping health care professionals with the essential foundations on which to build expertise and specialist skill since it was first published in 1988.
