Free and Low Cost Healthcare Books and Accessories
Founded in 1965 by Professor David Morley CBE, Teaching-aids At Low Cost (TALC) is a unique charity whose main objective is to promote the health of children and advance medical knowledge and teaching in the UK and throughout the world by providing and developing educational material.
'Community
Nutrition: a handbook for health and development workers'
TALC's founder David Morley was the inspiration behind TALC's newest low-cost
nutrition book 'Community Nutrition: a handbook for health and development
workers'. This well-illustrated book is written in TALC's easy-to-read style,
is edited by Ann Burgess, Marlou Bijlsma and Carina Ismael with inputs from
many other nutritionists and is published by Macmillan Education. It is intended
for health and other professionals who work at community and district levels,
as well as teachers and students of nutrition.
