Book Description

October 8, 2002 0824793552 978-0824793555
Exploring the structure and physical and chemical properties of solutions, dispersions, soft solids, fats, and cellular systems, Physical Chemistry of Foods describes the physiochemical principles of the reactions and conversions that occur during the manufacture, handling, and storage of foods. Coverage progresses from aspects of thermodynamics, bonds and interaction forces, and reaction kinetics, to transport phenomena, polymers, colloidal interactions, nucleation, glass transitions and freezing, and soft solids. This comprehensive volume effectively clarifies the physicochemical processes encountered in food product development.

4.0 out of 5 stars a little bit of everything, February 12, 2007
This review is from: Physical Chemistry of Foods (Food Science and Technology) (Hardcover)
this book is required for my class. It's OK, it covers everything but you need to look elsewhere if you are missing some background information. It does not go in-depth on some topics that could use a little more detail. With that said, colloids is not an easy subject and you cannot expect all information to be contained in one textbook. Research articles are key.
