4.0 out of 5 stars a real handbook, January 18, 2008
By 
G. F. Boaventura (Nova Iguaçu, RJ, Brazil) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Handbook of Cosmetic Science and Technology, Second Edition (Hardcover)
Every professional who works (or wishes to work) on R&D should carry this book wherever he goes! It contains just everything we need to know about cosmetic science and technology. And particularly it has a specific part of it dedicated to product testing and regulatory matters. Save yourself from a hundred of heavy and useless books just because 2 or 10 pages of them are important. Buy this one: it is almost complete and 'carriable'.

5.0 out of 5 stars The science behind the art, January 21, 2007
This review is from: Handbook of Cosmetic Science and Technology, Second Edition (Hardcover)
For years, Doctor Howard Mauibach has been synononimous with quality. He continues the tradition of quality with this book.
