NLM Call no. It is clearly selective and not comprehensive. Entries are intended to be a concise reminder of the term more than a definition. Most entries are good, simple explanations of the concepts but sometimes they may be too concise. There are cross references to other terms.
Reference is made to the many tables and figures in the entries.
Unfortunately, except for a few entries, the page number for the table or figure is not given. Also, the tables and figures are not separated clearly enough from the text. It is hard to tell where figures and tables stop, or if they are part of an annotation. In spite of these flaws, it is a very useful reference for people who work with nutrition, especially those who need only a reminder, and not an extensive definition. Recommended for medical and academic libraries.
