In many arid areas, camels play a central role as milk suppliers. The comparative advantage of the camel as a dairy animal over the other species in the same environment is difficult to quantify; however, it is widely recognised that in absolute terms, the camel produces more milk and for a longer period of time than any other milk animal held under the same conditions. Research on camel milk was limited until the early seventies to studies on general composition and milk yields. Since the early eighties the interest in studies on properties of camel milk has been growing. However, such studies are still fragmentary and by no means systematic. This book attempts to fill a gap which exists in the literature. It provides a synthesis of existing knowledge on the chemical properties and physical characteristics of camel milk as well as technological problems associated with the utilization of camel milk. This has not been done before and it is true to say that no book of this nature, dealing especially with chemistry and technology of camel milk, has yet been published. The book draws on the author's experience in research on camel milk in many countries, including Kenya, Somalia, Ethiopia and Switzerland.
