Deborah Valenze traces the complex cultural and economic trajectory of milk, examining its transformation from a localized pastoral staple to a global industrial commodity. By analyzing the intersection of agricultural practices, public health initiatives, and shifting dietary norms, the author reveals how this perishable substance became a central pillar of modern nutritional science and domestic life.
