First published in 1980. The following papers represent a selection of studies which provide such an insight into human food behavior during development. It is hoped that readers will be encouraged to participate in this new quest for knowledge. The time has surely come to document carefully the food practices of different societies. The authors’ hope there will be similar and parallel attempts to evaluate the health and disease status so that the relationships between diet and disease may be clarified.
