Review:

"...Highly recommended." --Anita Ezzo, Food Science and Technology Librarian, Michigan State University Library

"This encyclopedia should be in every library dealing with dairy science..." --International Dairy Journal

"The four-volume reference work serves as a complete resource guide for dairy science students, researchers, practitioners and industry personnel. Dairy cattle, their milk and milk products are the main emphases of the encyclopedia, but it also includes articles on other milk-producing animals, such as goats, sheep, horses, camels and Northern Scandinavian reindeer. There are articles specifically on economics and trade issues related to milk and milk products." --DeltaFarm Press.com
