I have used this book more than any other text during my professional and teaching career. It's not easy to read, but it has all the pertinent info, charts, and tools needed to perform a thorough assessment.
I bought this for a class - it seems to be the same material as the US published one, but the pages don't align with what my teacher is telling us to read. It was a good deal, but I'm not convinced I'd buy an international version again.
This book gives a comprehensive description of the different methods of nutritional assessment from anthropometry, biochemical, clinical and dietary methods. I use this book as one of the references in Nutritional Assessment, but this can also be used by students and professionals from allied health studies. For the next version, I would like to see chapters on assessment methods appropriate for emergencies, disasters, refugee settings and those for developing countries.
Matches up exactly to the domestic student version from what I have read, and at a fraction of the price.
I wish I would have had a need to use it more for my class but when reading the first chapter it was quite a drag.
