This volume is the first English translation of the book published in German in 1936. ... Of interest to Public Health workers and endocrinologists." (Pediatric Endocrinology Reviews (PER), Vol. 10 (2), January, 2013) "This book addresses a re-emerging world problem identified, namely the role of iodine deficiencies on cognitive and other mental dysfunctions. ... This book serves to provide clinical approaches for treatment while also raising public awareness of this sad and growing problem." (The Electric Review, October, 2012)
