Dysphagia – difficulties in swallowing – are a major factor involved in malnutrition in many cases. Nutritionists can benefit from better understanding this complex process. “Comprehensive Management of Swallowing Disorders” by Ricardo L. Carrau, Thomas Murry and Rebecca J. Howell (San Diego, CA: Plural Publishing: 2017) is one of the most comprehensive books on dysphagia. Its contents inform on the nature of swallowing, the etiology of relevant disease, evaluations, diagnosis and interventions for swallowing problems in adults. It could thus be useful for nutritionists and dietitions, pediatricians, occupational therapists, gastroenterologists, otorhinolaryngologists, neurologists, surgeons, speech and language pathologists, and families of patients with swallowing problems. This second edition textbook, which was published in 2017, is divided into seven sections that each address a fundamental knowledge gap, providing a comprehensive foundation from which future treatment innovation can be made.
