This bibliography fills a gap in the reference literature on
nutrition in the Middle East by providing abstracts of all studies
published from 1970 through 1986. It continues the work that was
started by A Decade of Nutrition Research in the Arab World
1960-1970, published by the American University of Beirut. The
geographic scope of the bibliography includes Algeria, Bahrain,
egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon,
Libya, Morocco, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Sudan, Syria,
Tunisia, Turkey, United Arab Emiratges, and North and South Yemen;
it also includes studies from other countries, such as Afghanistan,
that have substantial Arab or Islamic populations. Information is
also supplied for works that examine the nutrition of Middle
Eastern guest workers and their families in Europe, or which focus
on Islamic migrants to that continent. Relevant intercountry
studies, projects, and conferences are referenced as well. The
population focus of this bibliography is on people who consume
primarily the Middle Eastern diet. Although human nutrition is the
main subject, this necessarily also involves works which treat
animal nutrition, toxicology, agriculture, epidemiology,
parasitology, food technology, medical therapy, and cultural
practices. The bibliography is organized and cross-indexed by years
of publication, country examined, first author's last name, and
main and secondary topics for ease of use. English-language
abstracts are provided for every article.
