This work is a detailed survey of food safety issues today, from
E-coli contamination in fruits and vegetables to food production
practices that increase antibiotic resistance. Is our food safe?
Much of the corn, soybeans, and canola oil we eat has been
genetically modified, but we don't know the long-term effects of GM
foods on our health and the environment. We also consume
antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria through the meat we eat,
and we face new threats like mad cow disease, avian flu, and
bioterrorism. Food Safety: A Reference Handbook, Second Edition
provides a broad, readable, and level-headed overview of these and
other food safety controversies. Through a combination of
statistics and substantive information, it delineates the nature
and scope of the issues. It also introduces readers to the
researchers, activists, industries, and government agencies that
play a role in the battle for food safety—an issue that impacts
us all.
