N2 - The theory of the phonon-drag contribution to the electron-phonon scattering resistivity is generalized to the polyvalent metals, taking explicit account of the multiple-plane-wave character of the pseudo-wavefunction and the non-sphericity of the Fermi surface. It is shown that, in marked contrast to the situation for the alkali metals, phonon-drag effects are negligible for the polyvalent metals.
