Opis

Argues that milk has so many health and cultural implications that everyone should have an understanding of it. It begins with how milk is made in the lactating cell, discusses the pros and cons about the healthfulness of cows' milk, and explores the gap between the public's impressions of milk, and facts about milk and dairy foods.
