Nanotechnologies in Food provides an overview of the products and
applications of nanotechnologies in agri-food and related sectors.
Following on from the success of the first edition, this new
edition has been revised and updated to bring the reader fully up
to date on the emerging technological, societal, and policy and
regulatory aspects in relation to nanotechnologies in food. This
book contains new chapters discussing some of the aspects that have
attracted a lot of debate and research in recent years, such as how
the regulatory definition of 'nanomaterial' is shaping up in Europe
and whether it will result in a number of exciting food additives
being regarded as nanomaterials, how the new analytical challenges
posed by manufactured nanoparticles in food are being addressed and
whether the emerging field of nano delivery systems for food
ingredients and supplements, made of food materials or other
soft/degradable polymers, can raise any consumer safety concerns.
The edition concludes by discussing the future trends of the
technological developments in the area of nanotechnologies and
potential future 'fusion' with other fields, such as biotechnology
and synthetic biology. This book provides a source of much needed
and up-to-date information on the products and applications of
nanotechnology for the food sector - for scientists, regulators,
and consumers alike. It also gives an independent, balanced, and
impartial view of the potential benefits as well as risks that
nanotechnology applications may bring to the food sector. Whilst
providing an overview of the state-of-the-art and foreseeable
applications to highlight opportunities for innovation, the book
also discusses areas of uncertainty in relation to public
perception of the new technological developments, and potential
implications for consumer safety and current regulatory controls.
The book also discusses the likely public perceptions of
nanotechnologies in the light of past technological developments in
the food sector, and how the new technology will possibly be
regulated under the existing regulatory frameworks.
A practical and enjoyable way for the beginner, with no knowledge,
to start on the journey of becoming a serious watch collector.
"In the 30+ years since its conclusion, countless volumes have been
crafted regarding the Vietnam War - not to mention movies,
television specials, and documentaries. Most of the written and
visual media have done a commendable job of exploring the
logistical blunders and other revealing aspects of the war itself;
however, very few of them have given Vietnam the same empathic
human touch as "Saving Private Ryan" so famously did for World War
II. Throughout the pages of Vietnam: No Regrets, author and Vietnam
veteran J. Richard Watkins steps directly in the gap and fills that
void in standout fashion. A heart-wrenching memoir recounted in an
unfiltered, no-holds-barred manner, Vietnam: No Regrets takes the
reader straight into the heart of one of the most controversial
extended episodes in our nation's history, painting the gruesome
conflict in a graphic, vivid light - undeniably real and raw.

Ever wonder why so many relationships, even those that begin on a
healthy note, ultimately end in turmoil? One of the most common
reasons is people choosing lust over love, and this happens far
more often than most of us realize. The Ultimate Alternative: When
One Chooses Lust Over Love examines the myriad of reasons why
people make such a disastrous choice and end up ruining what could
have been a healthy relationship. This story identifies and forces
the reader to think seriously about the most important elements in
