Nutritional Ergogenic Aids is clearly not intended for the athlete, coach, or athletic trainer. Rather it is a reference textbook for the academician in the field of nutrition science, biochemistry, or exercise physiology.

CONTENT

Nutritional Ergogenic Aids is an indepth review of the scientific literature on nutritional and sports supplements. The book is long (536 pages) and, as of this writing, I have not yet finished reading it. My initial impression is that the book contains as much nutritional biochemistry as it does sports nutrition. Each chapter is heavily-referenced back to the original citation, with one chapter containing 426 reference citations alone! (most of the other chapters provide 30-150 reference citations).
