Breast-Feeding: Early Influences on Later Health is a new book
which draws together areas of research in early lifel programming
of adult health, with a unique focus on the post-natal period in
terms of early life programming particularly the extent to which
differences in infant feeding practices can lay an indelible
imprint on metabolism and behaviour, and hence affect later
function and risk of disease. This is an area where there is much
less information currently available than there is for fetal
programming, and the book raises many new questions and highlights
numerous areas where further research is needed. The book chapters
are arranged in three core sections: Chapters 1-4 lay down some of
the basic biology of early life development; Chapters 5-9 examine
how breast-milk and breast-feeding might programme these processes
by acting as modulators of development; Chapters 10-17 examine the
epidemiological evidence that such effects do indeed exist. In
addition the book includes unique chapters on the Evolution of
human lactation and complementary feeding, The Macy-Gyorgy Prize
Lecture My Milky Way, updates on HIV and Breast-Feeding and on
Early breastfeeding cessation and infant mortality in low-income
countries, and measuring trace immune factors in human milk, all
important topics that have such a critical impact on child health
and survival in many countries."
