Book content fantastic; quality a little disappointing.
This book is a must-have for anyone interested in furthering their knowledge of the biochemical nature of disease processes, & appropriate nutritional/medical interventions. Physiology/pathophysiology is clear & succinct, & covers diseases not often covered in other nutritional texts. Nice to see a US publication using SI rather than Empirical Units! The Appendices are one of the highlights of the book- not just a few tables, but a whole section- very useful & practical. One short-fall in this book is the lack of use of uniform imaging & coloured diagrams, and only 2 pages of colour plates (Part IIe, section 38)?!, which detracts slightly from their welcome abundance. In all, a prized addition to anyone’s library who wishes to have a comprehensive resource at their fingertips.Book quality- This is a well-bound, sturdy publication, with fine paper a necessity to hold over 2000pages of information. I was a little disappointed to find, on unwrapping the book, that it has a whelt (moisture or manufacture?) on the cover along with some scratches, and a few of the front pages were dog-eared. If customers are paying over $100 for a text, they expect better care of the book on your part!

Despite good intentions, there are whole chapters by a quack …
Despite good intentions, there are whole chapters by a quack called Stephen Barret from Quackwatch Inc., who makes his living by denouncing integrative Therapies, even when they are evidence-based and clinically successful. Luckily they kicked him out of the 11th Edition. Embarrassing and unscientific…

In my opnion this is by far one of the best detailed books on nutrition and its functionality to the physiological mechanisms of the human organism. A definate recommendation to anybody wishing to understand true human health provided by the only true health components that are made for man. Worth every penny
