Repeated infectious also contribute to malnutrition in children, and subsequently impacts future learning and productivity. This book analyzes the linkages between malnutrition and environmental health, and assesses the burden of disease on young children, and its economic costs.Environment and development (Washington, D.C.)Environmentally induced diseases in childrenDeveloping countriesMalnutrition in childrenDeveloping countriesEnvironmentally induced diseases in childrenMalnutrition in children618.92/98World Bank.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910813004603321Environmental health and child survival4088669UNINA
