The Fiddling Cellist by Renata Bratt

This antiquarian book contains a treatise on human nutrition, being Horace Fletcher's monograph on 'The New Glutton or Epicure'. This fascinating text will appeal to readers with an interest in the history and development of nutritional study, and will be of special value to collectors of vintage literature of this ilk. The chapters of this book include: 'The Personal ''Case'' and ''Endorsement'' of Dr. Ernst Van Someren', 'Experiments upon Human Nutrition', 'Military-Scientific Cooperation', 'Dr. Kellogg's Appreciation', 'Extracts from Dr. Edward Hooker Dewey', 'An Agreeable Endurance Test', 'Edward W. Redfield's Evidence', 'The Mind Power-Plant', etcetera. Horace Fletcher (1849 - 1919) was an American nutritionist famously referred to as ''The Great Masticator because of his claim that food should be chewed one-hundred times before being swallowed. We are republishing this vintage book now in an affordable, modern edition complete with a new prefatory biography of the author.
