چکیده

FOR this new edition the work has been substantially rewritten and new subjects discussed include Genetical Aspects of Child Health, Child Guidance, Vocational Guidance, Health Education, Punishment, and Child Health in the Tropics. Many of these, and the other activities discussed in Part II-Social Aspects of Child Health, are now also the concern of a large number of trained lay workers employed by the State and Local Authorities. If medical men are to continue to interest themselves and advise on all that concerns the health and well-being of children they must also be informed on these activities. Nowhere else will they find so much useful information on these topics collected and discussed within a reasonable space. About half of the book is devoted to development, and this includes chapters on prenatal development, the newborn, digestion, nutrition and feeding, feeding habits, postnatal growth, puberty and adolescence, intellectual, emotional and instinctive development and immunity. Throughout the book is concerned with the healthy child, his physical and mental growth and his place in society. It is not directly concerned with the diseased child. The editor is responsible for five of the twenty-three chapters and for a broad-based and stimulating introduction. He has had the assistance of sixteen other contributors. The outcome is an up-to-date book, well edited, and providing the practitioner with information both for everyday application and for reference.
