Synopsis

Discover how a trusted everyday staple became a major public challenge and what it means for your health and wallet. This edition of The Modern Milk Problem collects the history, science, and policy ideas behind the battle for safe, affordable milk in urban life.

Milk is one of the most common foods, yet its safety and price are shaped by complex factors from farm to table. The book explains how sanitary rules, market forces, and politics interact in the modern dairy system, and why cities face unique hurdles.

- Understand the key sanitary standards, testing, and milk grading that aim to protect infants and families.
- Learn how costs, distribution, and regulation influence the price you pay for milk.
- See why centralizing delivery and improved farming practices are proposed solutions.
- Explore how public discussion and policy can drive fair treatment for farmers, dealers, and consumers.

Ideal for readers of public health history, agriculture policy, and urban economics who want a clear view of the milk problem and its possible fixes.
