Progress in the Chemistry of Fats and Other Lipids

The book has two sections. In the first section Hermann Schlenk deals with the odd numbered polyunsatured fatty acids. In the second section Ralph T. Holman discusses the biological activities of and requirements for polyunsaturated acids. Both the authors present a wealth of up-to-date information on the topics discussed. The book will be a valuable guide to all those engaged in lipid research.
