Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This foundational text explores the influence of infant feeding practices on life expectancy and viability. Written in the Victorian era, the author examines the alarmingly high mortality rates among infants and young children, with a particular focus on the impact of inadequate breast milk. The author argues that breast milk is essential for optimal infant health and development, and that the practice of hiring wet nurses poses significant risks to the child's well-being. The book details the author's observations and research on the subject, providing valuable insights into the importance of proper nutrition for infants. Through meticulous analysis of data and case studies, the author makes a compelling case for the benefits of breastfeeding and the dangers of improper feeding practices. The book not only highlights the importance of breast milk for infant survival, but also sheds light on the broader social and economic factors that contributed to the high infant mortality rates of the time. This book serves as a reminder of the enduring importance of infant nutrition and the need for continued efforts to promote breastfeeding and improve the health of infants and young children.
