Excerpt from Food, Health and Growth: A Discussion of the Nutrition of Children
This little volume contains the Lane Lectures given at the Medical School of the Leland Stanford Junior University in San Francisco in December, 1921. The lectures are published substantially as they were delivered.
The book is not therefore to be regarded as a text-book or even a systematic discussion of the aspects of nutrition which are here considered. But out of the wide range of topics relating to the nutrition of children certain ones have been chosen which seemed of special interest and importance at the present time, even though they are apparently not closely connected.
Everything relating to the subject of nutrition and especially the food and nutrition of children has acquired a new interest in the last few years and much new knowledge has been added. The effort has been made in these lectures to present some of this in such a simple form as to make it available to the student of nutrition and the general reader.
