Nutrition and Poverty - WIDER Studies in Development Economics
Osmani, S. R.,
This volume deals with an ongoing debate relating to the definition and measurement of nutritional status. It focuses on the problems of measuring undernutrition and its links with poverty, both as a cause and an effect.
Marc Notes: A study prepared for the World Insitute for Development Economics Research (WIDER) of the United Nations University.; Includes bibliographical references (p. 322-355) and indexes. Publisher Marketing: This volume addresses issues arising from the definition and measurement of poverty in terms of nutritional status. A high degree of nutritional deprivation is considered to be an indicator of poverty. Hence the definition of an appropriate nutritional yardstick and its measurement are of crucial significance for determining the level and magnitude of poverty.
