- Comprehensive coverage of the latest research in isolating and analysing the diverse range of compounds in milk
- Reviews the genetic factors that affect milk composition, as well as the ways milk chemistry can affect sensory quality
- Explores the importance of milk as a valuable commodity
"The book contains many contributions informed by recent research. These will be of value to nutritionists, dairy scientists and technologists working in research, industrial and teaching roles…the editors have achieved their aim of producing a reference work that addresses the nutritional and functional properties of milk and its contribution to human nutrition. It is a valuable reference source for dairy professionals."
