The book deals with the nature of food and what happens when it is stored, processed, preserved, cooked, eaten and digested. Coverage is given to the major changes that have occurred over the last decade. The main perspectives of the subject are outlined in a new introductory chapter and recent advances in understanding, such as the new appreciation of the importance of fibre in diet, are emphasized. The book concludes with a discussion of the relationship between the food we eat and health and disease.Birch, Gordon G. is the author of 'FOOD SCIENCE 3ED' with ISBN 9780080319810 and ISBN 0080319815.
