Mans search for protein continues and expands into new areas as the
demands of a greater world population, of more sophisticated palates and
incomes to support them, and the competition of calories and proteins for
agricultural resources each add their own constraints to the opportunities
to provide an adequate protein supply. As this search unfolds, there is a
periodic need to provide a literature which would at once describe what
can be done and what is being done, and would raise pertinent questions
about future needs. This is the objective of this three-volume treatise.
