Summary

More and more, the importance of disease, diet, environment and lifestyle in infancy and childhood is being recognized, not only because these factors effect the early years of life, but because of their affect on physical and mental health throughout adulthood as well. In this book, which is written for physicians and health administrators as well as the general public, experienced professionals discuss current child health problems in lay terms, in an attempt to contribute further to parental understanding of childhood problems.
