Nutrition & Food
A handbook of invalid cooking
Mary A. Boland
313 pages~6 hr 14 min read307 chapters$4.99
Cooking for the sick is chemistry with a bedside manner. Mary Boland's manual, written for nurses, begins with explanatory lessons on food, chemical and physical changes, and the composition of the body before a word of recipes. Then it teaches the gentle dishes that help someone mend. Feed an invalid as carefully as medicine is measured.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
