Synopsis

Originally published in 1932, this manual was intended mainly for the use of student’s and nurses, but it was the author’s hope that it would also prove useful to the increasing number of parents anxious to obtain a knowledge of the principles which underlie the successful feeding and care of children. Many years of practical work in England and abroad, as doctor and teacher, had given the author insight into the difficulties incidental to the subject.

The subject-matter of the book includes: Preparation for parenthood and the ante-natal care of the mother; the scientific feeding and care of the baby, with an informative chapter on foods, their qualities and uses; ailments and their treatment, including a special group of what are called school-diseases; the hygiene of the home, including facts about drainage, etc.; provisions which exist for alleviating the needs of the people. Today it can be read in its historical context.

This book is a re-issue originally published in 1932. The language used is a reflection of its era and no offence is meant by the Publishers to any reader by this re-publication.
