AUTHORITATIVE AND HIGHLY ACCESSIBLE, Nutrition is the complete practical guide to every aspect of healthy eating. This new home reference contains up-to-date food facts and focuses on good nutrition as a way of life. Nutrition has been written and designed in a user-friendly split-page format where theory and practical application appear together throughout the book. The authors explain in a very approachable way how to achieve a balanced diet, with recipes and sample menus throughout. A substantial chapter, "The Truth About Weight Control", addresses the issues of weight loss and weight gain, but equally importantly the authors tackle the issue of how to maintain an optimum weight. This section includes a discussion on obesity - a major health problem in the developed world - as well as detailed evaluations of more than 40 weight-loss programmes. In addition, the authors provide a personal weight-management plan.

This book explores the interdependence of health and education, and how optimising this important relationship provides the foundation for achieving improved life outcomes from birth into adulthood. Adopting a multi-disciplinary approach, it draws on bio-medical, epidemiological, educational, psychological and economic evidence to demonstrate the benefits of the reflexive, positive associations between good health and educational attainment over the life course. In this, it offers readers insights into the complex nature of the nexus between health and education and how this relationship influences development. Health and Education Interdependence: Thriving from Birth to Adulthood is essential reading for education and health researchers and policymakers, teachers and public health and health promotion practitioners, as well as students studying in these fields.
