Excerpt from Diet in Health and Disease

The continued appreciation of the profession as evidenced by their using this book has added greatly to the endeavor to make the fifth edition of more value than the preceding ones.

There are scarcely any subjects in medicine that have received the same amount of attention of recent years as dietetics and the study of nutrition. The literature is voluminous and it would neither be possible nor profitable to try to include everything that has been brought forward. There are many differences of opinion among authorities on many questions which can only be settled by future study and in many cases the views expressed are diametrically op posed. Much of our knowledge on nutrition is fragmentary and the exact value of many contributions cannot be estimated until further investigations have been made. Dietetics has always been a sub jcet much influenced by fads and fancies and much of the literature has little value in consequence.

The authors have endeavored to give fully the various facts relat ing to the composition of foods, to indicate as far as possible in the space of one volume the scientific basis, when there is any for the various diets and. To give at the same time practical directions and diet lists which can be used without extensive training.
