This is a great book that I'll keep in my library for years to come. I really enjoyed that the book listed all the top sources of certain vitamins and minerals, all in one easy place. The chemistry is basic as well, but not overwhelming. For more of the same but maybe a bit higher level, I suggest Robert Wildman's "Advanced Human Nutrition", or "The Nutritionist."

When I bought this book, I thought that I would get the book bundled with a CD that gives access to online resources related to the subject (This is the standard for this book). I informed the customer service that there was no CD with the book but unfortunately the book they send me again comes with no CD. My sister (the end user of the book) was forced to pay additional money to get online access. I was a bit disappointed about it.However, I also want to congratulate the seller on their politeness and speed in shipping the stuff.I am always content with the service I get through Amazon and I hope I will continue to be a client.
