Food safety is one of today's major concerns. One important factor in food safety is cleaning and sanitation of the equipment used in the food, dairy, beverage, brewery and hospitality industry. Cleanliness is a relevant factor; the public consumes more and more prepared or semi-prepared foods. The consequences of contamination can be catastrophic for the public and the economic and legal implications for the producer can be devastating. There have been several large and medium size enterprises bankrupted by a national recall of their contaminated products. This book was prepared with the practical and technical experience of many years working on real cases, improving in general the cleanliness and sanitation of the equipment where the food or beverage was prepared and packed. Know and apply these principles and you will reduce costs and improve cleanliness and sanitation. It is complemented with more than 50 spreadsheets of the most useful and used calculations. It includes an updated bibliography and important commercial references.

In 1973, abortion was legalized in the United States as a health service to a woman, should her pregnancy be life threatening. It was also legalized to halt child abuse and acts of rape and incest. Plus, abortion was legalized to reduce the number of teenage pregnancies and to prevent handicapped babies being born. Abortion has failed because child abuse has increased 1000 percent and many future, wanted babies, are born handicapped anyway, due to having an abortion. Instead, abortion has become a form of birth control and relief of financial responsibility.
The abortion industry, unlike hospitals, is not monitored or scrutinized by rules or regulations. They operate with a free hand, not having to answer to anyone. Often women are coerced into signing a release form relieving clinics and/ or an abortionist from all responsibilities.
Women have been duped into thinking that abortion is an easy procedure; that it is safe, with no adverse reactions. But the truth of the matter is the biological clock governs every phase of a woman's reproductive system. The biological clock in a pregnancy cannot be interrupted by a trauma, such as an abortion, without a malfunction. The abortion procedure may be over, but the pregnancy, technically, is not over; so what happens now? Abortion creates a malfunction in a woman's body, due to an unfinished pregnancy. This malfunction erupts as a complication physically, mentally or emotionally. There are over 100 complications that can occur, from a simple one to a major complication, and one that can last a lifetime.

In 20 years, what smoker will legitimately be able to claim that he or she didn't know cigarettes were harmful or addictive? And how shocked will a jury really be when it hears that a tobacco executive in the 1960s knew about the addictive nature of cigarettes? There's no real evidence that telling kids not to smoke really works. Indeed, studies have shown that it can often have the opposite effect. Children, by their very nature, love to defy authority, and spending millions on advertising to vilify the cigarette could ultimately serve to enhance its appeal. The cigarette is and will continue to be forbidden fruit. Even though the films of Hollywood's Golden Age once portrayed smoking as a normal activity, smoking no longer enjoys such popularity-and for good reason. An estimated 3.5 million people worldwide still die each year from smoking-related illnesses. Through the use of factoids and cartoons, author Gilbert M. Silva illustrates his belief that smokers are victims of what is essentially a ridiculous and deadly activity. the use of tobacco products are indisputable, and they deserve serious consideration.

This is certainly an important topic, and I want to congratulate you on an entertaining and well-produced book. - Diane Scott-Lichter, publishing director, the American Cancer Society.

Most Americans mistakenly believe asbestos was banned long ago. In fact, it is still legal and can still kill you. Its microscopic fibers cause painful and incurable diseases.

Despite being outlawed in nearly every other industrialized country, asbestos remains a legal component of more than three thousand common products in the United States. These include toasters, washers/dryers, ovens, building supplies, and automobile brakes. Our confusion about asbestos is no accident.

Fatal Deception is a chilling exposé of the asbestos industry's successful seventy-year campaign to hide the deadly effects of its products from the American people. The stakes are high -- tens of thousands of lives and hundreds of billions of dollars. Michael Bowker rips the cover off the decades of deceit, including the treachery in Libby, Montana, site of the most deadly environmental disaster in U.S. history. He also unveils a startling and ongoing cover-up at Ground Zero -- where thousands of New Yorkers may still be suffering from exposure to dangerous levels of asbestos fibers.

Compelling, enraging, and very timely, Fatal Deception is not just a fascinating story, it is a plea to the government and to the American people to help sponsor research into asbestos-related diseases -- and a call to arms to ban asbestos now.
