ABSTRACT
This book is Part II of Volume II of a series of ten volumes to be published under the title Nutrition Animale as part of the Nouvelle Encyclopédie Agricole, which is being published by J. B. Baillière et Fils, Paris, under the direction of Jean Lefèvre and Pierre Tissot of the Institut National Agronomique. Volume I and Volume II, Part I, have been previously reviewed (J. Dairy Sci., 41, A19. 1958; 43, 1030. 1960).
In this second part of Volume II, the authors discuss the transport of water and of minerals in Chapter V (Chapter I through IV appeared in Part I), the metabolism of vitamins and antibiotics in Chapter VI, and the metabolism of energy in Chapter VII. This is obviously a very wide area to cover in 465 pages. However, in general the review is quite comprehensive and perhaps at times suffers as much from noncritical inclusion of material as it does from omissions.
