First published in 1984, and now in its 6th edition, this book has
become the classic text on food chemistry around the world. The
bulk components - carbohydrates, proteins, fats, minerals and
water, and the trace components - colours, flavours, vitamins and
preservatives, as well as food-borne toxins, allergens, pesticide
residues and other undesirables all receive detailed consideration.
Besides being extensively rewritten and updated a new chapter on
enzymes has been included. At every stage attention is drawn to the
links between the chemical components of food and their health and
nutritional significance. Features include:"Special Topics" section
at the end of each chapter for specialist readers and advanced
students; an exhaustive index and the structural formulae of over
500 food components; comprehensive listings of recent, relevant
review articles and recommended books for further reading; frequent
references to wider issues eg the evolutionary significance of
lactose intolerance, fava bean consumption in relation to malaria
and the legislative status of food additives around the world.
Food: The Chemistry of its Components will be of particular
interest to students and teachers of food science, nutrition and
applied chemistry in universities, colleges and schools. Its
accessible style ensures that it will be invaluable to anyone with
an interest in food issues.
