The audience is practicing clinicians, and since the book comes from the American Academy of Pediatrics, specifically pediatricians. There are plenty of books and resources available on specific topics, so this book may not be useful for those specializing in a particular field, but rather generalists who need access to a wide variety of topics. For pediatricians and generalists, it meets these needs.

Doody's Review
"This updated edition is a needed replacement since much has changed in the five years since the previous one. This book can serve nicely for practicing generalist pediatric clinicians who need general information to start the nutrition conversation with their patients."
