The book entitled Diseases of Field Crops and their Management
provides most recent information about major diseases of
cultivation field crops, their symptoms, pathogen characters,
epidemiology, and management. In order to make the book all in one,
the importance of major diseases has also been dealt with in brief.

Nanotechnology offers great potential to revolutionize conventional
food science and the food industry. The use of nanotechnology in
the food industry promises improved taste, flavor, color, texture,
and consistency of foodstuffs and increased absorption and
bioavailability of nutraceuticals. Food Nanotechnology: Principles
and Applications examines the current state of nanoscale phenomena
and processes, benefits and risks of nanotechnology. This work
contains 18 chapters particularly focused on the design,
production, and utilization of nanoparticles, with specific
applications for the food industry. Through several studies, it has
been proven that nanotechnology can offer distinct advantages over
conventional methods in terms of functionality, targeted delivery
of food bioactive compounds, improved food quality characteristics
like texture, taste, sensory attributes and improved stability in
the gastrointestinal tract, and controlled release profiles.
Features Offers clear and concise coverage on application of
nanotechnology in nutrient delivery, food packaging, and
pathogen/pesticide detection Addresses both the technological
aspects of delivering nano-based food products and the societal
implications that affect take-up Covers broad range of topics
including nanoemulsification, electrospraying, nanocomposites,
plasma processing, and nanosensors Discusses different formulation
and preparation methods for loading food bioactive compounds
Exploratory in nature, this book presents the latest of such data
on all aspects of applications of nanotechnology in food systems.
With its practical focus on the fabrication and application of
nanotechnology in food, this book is a valuable resource for
students, researchers, food process engineers.
The book is intended to provide comprehensive introduction to the
important aspects of the field of forest pathology and tree
diseases. The book is arranged in two major parts. The fundamental
chapters, present forest diseases, pathogens, epidemics, and
management that is applicable to all forest trees. The applied
chapters on the individual crops that are grouped alphabetically
present information on the symptoms, pathogen and integrated
management of major diseases of forest trees. It was designed to
give a broad overview of the field of forest pathology but with
sufficient detail that they will be able to assess their specific
role as practicing forestry professionals. Note: T& F does not
sell or distribute the Hardback in India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan,
Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.
