Geo-Ecology of Malnutrition a Study of the Haryana Children

Abstract

It was the late philospher president Sarvapalli Radhakrishnan who remarked, "We must work with the precision of the jeweller, the vision of the prophet and the strength of the giant". When we address problems of food and nutrition, we find that this remark becomes all the more significant. Of course, the problem of malnutrition is a global one but it has to be attacked locally. In this context Aggarwal's work on the geo-ecology of malnutrition based on the survey of Haryana children stands out, among othes contributions.
