Several years ago, two of us published a full-length textbook
entitled Nutrition and Immunology: Principles and Practice. The
book was aca demically successful and well received by our peers.
Our colleagues commented that while the book was eminently suitable
for a library, there was still an intellectual need for a more
concise volume on nutrition and immunology for health care
providers and scientists working at the inter face of delivering
therapeutic and/or preventive health care. We agreed and decided
that a book focused on issues relevant to laboratory workers and to
developing countries would be valuable. We invited well-known
experts in their fields to contribute a chapter each and asked that
they err on the short rather than the long side and update cited
review articles rather than original papers wherever possible. The
Handbook of Nutrition and Immunity is the culmination of that
process. Our intention is that the book will grow over time and new
editions will fill identified voids that meet the changing needs of
health care providers and scientists interested in the practical
aspects related to evaluating nutrition and immunology in the
field. The Handbook of Nutrition and Immunity is for those people
working in both adult and child nutrition throughout the world. It
is also of relevance to those in the pharmaceutical and the food
industry who are interested in developing ways to evaluate both the
efficacy and effective ness of their products."
