"This collection of 13 chapters covers a broad spectrum of potentially toxic substances that contribute to the makeup of human nutrition.... [including] components of the food and nutrition universe, from inherent toxicants (plant toxins in food) to food safety, including foodborne illnesses and risk assessment. Between these two poles, the book addresses the entire process of food production and consumption,... the human response to food,... the interference of intoxicants,... the modifications of food substance,... the parameters for safety or non-toxicity evaluation, and the regulation for food safety, with related legislation.... A massive sum of information, with a particular focus on the 21st century and the United States. It is a snapshot of the current state of the food chain..." --©Doody’s Review Service, 2024, Alain Touwaide, PhD (Ronin Institute)
