Synopsis "Child Health in the Tropics: Leuven, 18-21 October 1983"
It is almost twenty years ago since under Nutricia's auspices the first Nutricia Symposium took place. Professor Jonxis was mainly responsible for the organiza- tion of the earlier symposia, whilst Professor Visser organized the fifth Nutricia Symposium in 1978. This book is the commitment to paper of the lectures given during the sixth Nutricia/Cow & Gate Symposium held in Louvain in 1983. Both Professor Eeckels and Professor Ransome-Kuti succeeded in collecting a panel of experts on 'Child Health in the Tropics'. We hope, in fact we are sure, that you will consider the contents of this book a daily stimulation in your medical profession.
