Overview

This text presents an in-depth review of what is known about the digestion, absorption, and transport of lipids by the intestine. Because lipids affect energy metabolism and the development of arteriosclerosis and obesity, the book should appeal to a large audience including clinicians, physiologists, and biochemists.
