Nutrition Support to Elderly Women Reviews

The Strength of this book is the thoroughness of methodology description.The book is very well organized, and the qualitative anecdotes make the text quite enjoyable to the reader.
This book would be useful to doctoral candidates with similar studies planned, and to researchers who want to enter or expand their qualitative investigations. -- Journal of Nutrition Education andBehavior
