✦ Synopsis

the chapters together, but no introductory information on dairy foods is provided, and a summary chapter linking the major theme of the individual chapters, i.e., diet-disease relationships, is lacking. Despite these minor deficits, the book serves as a good representation of current thinking on the topics selected and a good source of many up-to-date references.

Readers interested in calcium, fat, magnesium, and other nutrients in dairy foods will find this well-illustrated volume most useful as a valuable resource on the chronic diseases. The authors are to be congratulated for their reasoned interpretation of the vast, and sometimes confusing, literature on diet-disease linkages.
