Luxury animal fibres, the subject of this book, are related to the niche product area covering low volume big value-added products. Detailed information on luxury animal fibres, is still very limited even though the number of publications on luxury animal fibres have increased in recent years. In this book, after giving an overview of the luxury animal fibres, detailed information is given about the mohair, cashmere and cashgora fibres obtained from animals belonging to the goat family. Firstly, a general introduction is made about the animal that is the source of that fibre and the fibre it gives, and then information about historical background, world production, factors affecting production and yield, classification, microscopic properties, physical properties, chemical properties and end-uses of the fibre in question is given. Although there are several valuable resources in this field, the most important factor that distinguishes this book from others is that it provides a very systematic and comprehensive way in a generally diverse field for each fibre. In this way, the book is considered to be useful in terms of solving the problem of readers accessing information on various aspects related to luxury hair fibres obtained from animals belonging to the goat family.
