"Considering all the pseudoscientific mumbo-jumbo that passes for nutritional advice these days, I can't help being enthusiastic when a really good guide based on solid research shows up in bookstores...you can bet I'm going to recommend it to every parent I know. I'm talking about
Feeding Your Child for Lifelong Health...should be required reading for anyone with children under the age of six."
--Christine Gorman,
Time magazine
"A very intelligent approach to the feeding of young children."
--T. Berry Brazelton, M.D., author of
Touchpoints "At last a book that not only tells parents
what their children need to eat but provides a realistic and reassuring approach to
how to feed them. This is a book every parent will want to have on their bedside--or kitchen--table."
--Annie Pleschette Murphy, Editor-at-Large,
Parents magazine
"I have not seen another publication anywhere in the world that addresses this field in such a way. This book is truly brilliant...meticulously anchored in the science of nutrition, infant and young child behavior and development, and completely up-to-date. It is also full of warm, humanely written practical applications and guidance....An excellent guide for pregnant mothers, parents, health workers, nutritionists, nurses, physicians, and pediatricians."
--Graeme A. Clugston, M.B., Ph.D., Director, Nutrition for Health and Development, World Health Organization

--Dean Ornish, M.D., author of
Love & Survival and
