The Nutritional Trace Metals covers the roles played by tracemetals in human metabolism, a relatively neglected area of humanmetabolism and nutrition. The book focuses its attention on thevital roles played by the relatively small number of trace metalnutrients as components of a wide range of functional proteins. Itsstructure and content are largely based on the approach adopted bythe author, Professor Conor Reilly, during more than 30 years ofteaching nutrition to a wide range of undergraduate andpostgraduate students. The introductory chapter covers the roles of metals in lifeprocesses, the metal content of living systems and metals in foodand diets. This is followed by chapters, each dealing with anindividual trace metal. Those discussed are iron, zinc, copper, selenium, chromium, manganese, molybdenum, nickel, boron, vanadium, cobalt, silicon and arsenic. In each case attention is given to themetal's chemistry and metabolic roles, including absorption, transport, losses, status and essentiality, as well as theconsequences both of deficiency and excess. The Nutritional Trace Metals is essential reading fornutritionists, dietitians and other health professionals, includingphysicians, who wish to know more about these vital components ofthe diet. The book will also be of value to food scientists, especially those involved in food fortification and pharmaceuticalproduct formulation. It will be an invaluable reference volume inlibraries of universities and research establishments involved innutrition teaching and research. Conor Reilly is Emeritus Professor of Public Health at theQueensland University of Technology, Brisbane, Australia, and isalso Visiting Professor of Nutrition at Oxford Brookes University, Oxford, U.K.
