 very helpful resource July 3, 2008
I was required to buy this book as an intern, and never once used it. In my job now as a clinical dietitian, however, I find it to be an invaluable resource.
Excellent reference for clinical dietitians September 24, 2007

This book is invaluable. I have interns through my hospital pretty regularly and make them purchase this book to help w/their assessments. It is also a great reference for all RDs no matter what your skill level. There is always a disease process out there that you may not be familiar with.
Great Book! September 22, 2007

Just received this book, need it for a dietetic internship at a large hospital system on Long Island. Great for brief descriptions and nutrition interventions on disease. Was recommended to get this book by a lot of dietetic interns so i'm sure it will come in extremely useful.
 Great book, if it didn't fall apart! April 5, 2006

I am very dissapointed with the poor spiral binding on this book, (4th edition)! As a dietetic student, I don't have much money to spend on books as it is. As much as this one is priced, the publishers could have put a higher quality binding on it, (or made it a paperback, like previous editions). Pages are falling out constantly, especially since it the type of book you refer to all the time.
Great resource! August 6, 2005
