...a worthy endevor and a worthwhile addition to any collection serving dairy and food science students, teachers, researchers and/or practitioners. Highly recommended. -Anita Ezzo, Food Science and Technology Librarian, Michigan State University Library (2004) The supportive disciplines that collectively contribute to the diary sciences along with a robust emphasis on public health topics give the editors' purpose greater depth and breadth...The Encyclopedia of Diary Sciences is a subject-specific reference work, which is suitable for academic and professional libraries supporting dairying, dairy farming, and related disciplines. -AMERICAN REFERENCE BOOKS (2004) ...a worthy endeavor and a worthwhile addition to any collection serving dairy and food science students, teachers, researchers and/or practitioners. Highly recommended. -E-STREAMS (October 2003) ...an interesting and extremely informative set of volumes, suitable for everyone wishing to consolidate, improve and update their knowledge in any area of dairy science. -CARBOHYDRATE POLYMERS (November 2003) ...academically and physically, an impressive work, covering a very wide range of topics extending beyond milk...cover all of the important aspects of microbiology, the coverage is comprehensive, up-to-date and of a depth at least sufficient to answer a query or to provide a solid foundation for more specific search.

They are concise, but at the same time adequately present sufficient information to cover the subject. ...The Encyclopedia will be an important contribution to the body of knowledge related to dairy and food science. ...The Encyclopedia will be of as much use as a source of readily available general knowledge for persons who are practitioners, tecnicians, and leaders in agricultural pursuits related to dairying. -Earl M. Kesler, Pennsylvania State University I would regard this encyclopedia as essential for the libraries of tertiary teaching institutions including food science in their curricula. It should also be available at research institutes and dairy companies. -Peter J. Jooste, Animal Nutrition and Animal Products Institute, South Africa ...seems destined to become an essential reference source for dairy scientists in research, education and general technical roles. -W.J. Donnelly, Dairy Products Research Centre, Ireland
