Proteins as human food : proceedings of the Sixteenth Easter School in Agricultural Science, University of Nottingham, 1969 /
Proteins as Human Food is a collection of studies that discuss the importance of inclusion of protein in human diet; the problems that cause and may arise from its insufficiency; and its solutions. The book is divided into seven parts. Part I covers topics related to the world supply and demand of p...
