"Building on the successful framework of the previous edition," Dr.Richard Lord, a co-editor stated, "the task of this latest text was updatingand expanding content while adding extensive color figures, tables and caseillustrations from cover to cover, to make this book a valued clinician deskreference." The new text was written to organize and explain the various teststhat are available so as to make their study and use more applicable tomedical education and clinical practice, Lord said. "We hope that the new bookwill help lead to better understanding of human health and of how the clinicallaboratory can provide tools to identify problem areas that respond to thegentle and effective therapies of focused nutrient additions and toxicantremovals. It is time for the entire spectrum of healthcare providers to movetoward the use of such assessments as a routine clinical protocol for patientswith chronic diseases."
