The work of Harvard paleontologist Stephen J. Gould on heterochrony; of University of Arizona anthropologist William Stini on maladaptiveness of accelerated maturation; and of physiologist Edward Masoro at the University of Texas on caloric restriction and "undernutrition with malnutrition" are highlights of this research review. Also covered in detail are the concepts of entropy and neoteny, as well as diverse theories regarding infant feeding, dietary intake during childhood, and age of menarche. This literature review, despite being somewhat dated, should be worthwhile reading for persons interested in aging as a concept and multi-disciplinary approaches to aging.

]]> Drawing upon 842 indexed journal studies from the fields of cell biology, toxicology, immunology, neurology and genetics, Environmental Nutrition offers a molecular-level understanding of the link between environment, food quality, and disease. Included in the book are in-depth explorations of controversial topics like food irradiation and pesticide use, evaluations of over 100 toxic substances commonly found in food, and a detailed cellular-level analysis of potential health implications. Strategies for the establishment of environmental standards in nutrition are outlined, including sustainable agriculture and organic food production. (304 pages, 112 tables and figures, 842 indexed journal references.)

NOTE: Environmental Nutrition is only available in PDF format. Since a large file size was needed for high-quality results, two download options are available: a single file download (94MB), or a multi-file download with the book broken down into 8 smaller files (1-20MB each).
