One of the world's most widely-read books with over 15 million copies
of previous editions in use in 215 languages, Facts for Life has
helped to save the lives of millions of children by putting lifesav-
ing knowledge about children's health into the hands of those who
need it most: parents, caregivers, health workers, government offi-
cials, journalists and teachers.

This new edition has updated information on safe motherhood, early
childhood development, nutrition, HIV/AIDS and other major causes of
childhood illnesses and death. The information represents the best
current understanding of science, policy and practice. In simple
language, practical, effective, low-cost ways of protecting chil-
dren's lives and promoting their development are emphasized. Almost
everyone can act on this information. Everyone has the right to know
this information.

Facts for Life is a joint effort of UNICEF, the World Health Organi-
zation, UNESCO, UNFPA, UNDP, UNAIDS, WFP and the World Bank.
