Reviews
From the reviews:
"The papers in this volume present current research on the complex composition of human milk and its biological and nutritional role, its effects on infant and maternal health … . There is much here to assist IBCLCs … . a valuable resource for medical practitioners, nutritionists, and other clinicians working with breastfeeding women and their infants; for medical and nursing educators; and for researchers in public health, immunology, and the biological sciences. It should be on the library shelves of all institutions … ." (Virginia Thorley, Journal of Human Lactation, Vol. 21 (4), 2005)
