"A lifelong student of milk and lactation, Stuart Patton provides a wealth of analyses and guidance to help ordinary people deal with a rising tide of confusing and often disturbing information. He shows that in addition to its well-known content of essential nutrients, milk is actually proving to be healthful in previously unanticipated ways. In light of humanity's necessary concerns with health, enjoyment of life, and longevity, Milk is essential reading."--BOOK JACKET.
