Excerpt from Practical Dietetics: With Reference to Diet in Disease This work has been revised wherever necessary to incorporate the latest results of research in dietetics and embraces all the latest diets of leading physicians and hospitals. The continuous demand for this work since its last complete revision in 1910 has resulted in the publication of successive editions almost annually until the time became ripe for another complete revision. The present edition, while preserving as far as possible the original plan of the work, incorporates a large amount of new material in harmony with the latest developments in the science and art of dietetics. Many sections on the treatment of the sick have been entirely rewritten to conform with present hospital practice. The author takes this opportunity to acknowledge with thanks the valuable advice and assistance given by Mary Swartz Rose, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, Department of Nutrition. Teachers' College, Columbia University, New York City. For suggestions and permission to use certain diets the author wishes to express her hearty appreciation to: Dr. Frederick M. Allen, Physician to the Hospital of the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research, New York. Dr. Herbert S. Carter, Consulting Physician to the Lincoln Hospital, Associate in Medicine at Columbia University and Assistant Visiting Physician to the Presbyterian Hospital, New York. Dr. Warren Coleman, Professor of Clinical Medicine and Applied Pharmacology, Cornell University, Medical College. Visiting Physician to Bellevue Hospital, New York.

Excerpt from Practical Dietetics: With Special Reference to Diet in Disease Since the publication of the first edition of this work in 1895, great progress has been made in the study of dietetics. The scientific aspect of the subject has been notably advanced through the extensive researches of the Department of Agriculture in Washington, and of the allied Agricultural Experiment Stations in many different States, where food analyses, calorimetry computations, and investigations of the dietetic habits of different races and classes of men have done much towards placing the hitherto vague subject of dietetics upon an accurate scientific basis. In university and medical college laboratories much independent research has been devoted to the relationship between ingested food and excreta, and the complex processes of food metabolism in health and disease.
