The first edition of this book rapidly established a reputation for
providing a unique source of highly practical information on dairy
product technology. Coverage is of products in which milk is either
the main component or a less obvious ingredient. This new edition
continues to explain methods of milk product manufacture, the
technology involved, and how other influences affect finished
products. Coverage is expanded to fill some important gaps, and in
addition to three new chapters (microbiology, packaging, editorial
introduction) The other chapters have been revised, enlarged, and
brought up to date, Written for food technologists making dairy
products, the book is also an essential source of reference for the
industries ingredient suppliers and equipment manufacturers, and
those working in academic and research institutions. The
contributors have extensive practical experience of the industry.
Whenever I step into an aeroplane I cannot avoid considering the
risks associated with flying. Thoughts of mechanical failure, pilot
error and ter rorist action fill my mind. I try to reassure myself
with statistics which tell me there is greater chance of injury
crossing the road. The moment the plane takes off I am resigned to
my fate, placing faith in pilots who are highly qualified and
superbly trained for the task of delivering me safely to my
destination. To be a passenger in an aeroplane is to express faith
in the systems used by the airline. It is to express a faith in the
quality of the airline's organisation and the people who work
within it. The same is true of surgery. Thoughts of mortality are
difficult to avoid when facing the surgeon's knife. However, faith
in the surgeon's training and skill; faith in the anaesthetist and
theatre technicians, faith in the efficient resources and quality
of the hospital all help to convince that there is little need to
worry. Apart from flying and surgery there are many facets of life
which entail risk, but, knowing the risks, we willingly place our
confidence in others to deliver us safely. In the consumption of
food, however, few of us consider the risks. Everyday, if we are
fortunate, we eat food. Food sustains and gives us pleasure. Food
supports our social interactions."
