2.0 out of 5 stars
Maybe in England; but not the U.S.,
By Peter K. Ellis (Delray Beach, Florida United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Food Chemical Safety, Volume I: Contaminants (Woodhead Publishing in Food Science and Technology) (Hardcover)
I had the opportunity to examine this book. As someone in the food industry I was disappointed by Food Chemical Safety. Only one chapter deals specifically with the United States. Food safety is food safety; but when you buy a book on the subject; you want one which is applicable to you. The book is narrowly focussed on the U.K. food industry. Beyond the geographical location; the book lacked depth. Short paragraphs (which made for an impressive Table of Contents) provided no substance. If you are reading about food chemical safety; you want information beyond a short paragraph which assumes you know nothing to begin with. As the book is written, I could see its only use as a text in a library for college or high school students with a paper to write.
