Fatty acid composition of phospholipids. 

• We have concerned ourselves almost exclusively with the animal phospholipids and the reasons for this are two-fold. First, the whole phospholipid field is now too large to be covered entirely in a book of reasonable size, and second, the animal phospholipids are the particular interesr of the authors.
