The Milk Book: The Milk of Human Kindness Is Not Pasteurized

This highly-readable book discusses the merits of raw milk and dangers of pasteurization/homogenization, along with such related topics as mothers' milk, the eating of meat, and the effect (or, rather, lack thereof) of dietary cholesterol on the human heart. I found Dr. Douglass to be witty, well-informed, and respectful of readers with a wide variety of worldviews (although there is some mild coarse language throughout). This is not an overly scientific book, which may be seen as either a benefit or a downfall, depending on your reason for reading. Unfortunately, it is in dire need of proofreading/editing.
