Product description

Review

"Overall, the chapters are clear and well written, and the whole book is excellently put together. It is certainly wide-reaching in its coverage and should give anyone who reads it a very good appreciation of the many factors that affect the production of food in an industrial society." (Chemistry World, March 2010)

"The book finds the correct balance between academic knowledge and its application to the wider food industry, for example the consideration of cleaning and sanitizing within Food engineering. In addition to accuracy and detail, the chapters are all very readable. ... Highly recommended." (Society for General Microbiology, February 2010)

"This text and reference covers the core components of food science and technology degree programs. It contains contributions from 30 industry experts, teachers, and researchers from around the world, and includes color and b&w photos, images, and illustrations." (Book News, December 2009)

Another great purchase from a well known online seller of all good book titles. Although i paid a lot for it I am sure to find it useful when I look at the areas surrounding food science and technology, which can be applied to any job in the field oncluding of you work in healthcare, if you need to know where your patients food comes from.

Food Science and Technology book review

Reviewed in the United States on 27 December 2009

Verified Purchase

I bought the book for my daughter who is a food science major at UConn. She loves the book. Her assessment is that the book is a great reference and basically covers her entire major. It has diagrams, formulas and pictures of some lab equipment. She'll use it as a reference for her food chemistry class next semester.

The book itself was considered to be new... But was disappointed. The papers inside came completely off! It wasn't worth the money I paid.
