| Abstract | This guide has been compiled as an aide-memoire and resource book about the increasing incidence of malnutrition in infants caused by bottle feeding in the Third World. It deals with four major interrelated issues: (1) the prevalence of protein energy malnutrition, (2) the importance of breast milk, not only in preventing malnutrition and disease but also as an important world food resource, (3) the imposition of male-oriented Western culture, involving the more complex mechanisms of exploitation by Western multinational corporations, and (4) the fact that these mechanisms operate in the West as in the Third World to the particular detriment of both women and children. Sections 1 and 2 give an overview of these issues using material from people who have been writing about the issue for a long time - doctors, sociologists, nutritionists. Section 3 describes the action being undertaken on this issue in different countries: Australia, Canada, Denmark, West Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland, United Kingdom and the U.S. The epilogue attempts to put the issue into political perspective. A resource list and a bibliography are included. (MS) |
