By reading each chapter of this book, a food operator, technologist, coordinator and manager would be in a position to independently manage a HACCP system based on legal, scientific and consumers demand. This book is intended to provide a detailed discussion of diverse subjects with relation to food safety related to bakery, beverage, dairy, fish, and meat industries. It is well suited for under-graduate, post-graduate university students who are in dairy or food technology fields needing education in food safety and the HACCP system. This book will equally serve the food processing courses, industry sponsored courses and in plant HACCP training courses for the staff.

As a long-standing protagonist of good manufacturing practice in the food and drink industry, I was more than pleased to be invited to edit a series of books on practical approaches to food control. The series does not set out to re-invent the wheel, but rather to draw together collective wisdom in respect of particular food control issues and to present them in a way which will allow relevant managers, management or practitioners to address them on a practical level. It also tries to give a practical perspective for those concerned with law enforcement, some of whom will be newly challenged in face of EEC food control legislation. I am particularly delighted that the first in the series should be on the subject of hazard analysis and that the authors have real experience of HACCP applications within major and highly respected organizations. Sainsbury's and Grand Metropolitan are to be commended for the support that they have given to this initiative, as are others who have endorsed contributions from their employees. I have also been impressed with the quality and scope of the input from the authors of this publication, Sara Mortimore and Carol Wallace, and hope that the example of practical application which runs as an ongoing theme throughout the book will help those applying HACCP for the first time to weave through the inevitable difficulties without undue shedding of blood, sweat and tears.

Food safety is a matter of intense public concern, and for good reason. Millions of annual cases of food "poisonings" raise alarm not only about the food served in restaurants and fast-food outlets but also about foods bought in supermarkets. The introduction of genetically modified foods—immediately dubbed "Frankenfoods"—only adds to the general sense of unease. Finally, the events of September 11, 2001, heightened fears by exposing the vulnerability of food and water supplies to attacks by bioterrorists. How concerned should we be about such problems? Who is responsible for preventing them? Who benefits from ignoring them? Who decides? Marion Nestle, author of the critically acclaimed Food Politics, argues that ensuring safe food involves more than washing hands or cooking food to higher temperatures. It involves politics. When it comes to food safety, billions of dollars are at stake, and industry, government, and consumers collide over issues of values, economics, and political power—and not always in the public interest. Although the debates may appear to be about science, Nestle maintains that they really are about control: Who decides when a food is safe? She demonstrates how powerful food industries oppose safety regulations, deny accountability, and blame consumers when something goes wrong, and how century-old laws for ensuring food safety no longer protect our food supply. Accessible, informed, and even-handed, Safe Food is for anyone who cares how food is produced and wants to know more about the real issues underlying today's headlines.

Effective control of pathogens continues to be of great importance to the food industry. The first edition of Foodborne pathogens quickly established itself as an essential guide for all those involved in the management of microbiological hazards at any stage in the food production chain. This major edition strengthens that reputation, with extensively revised and expanded coverage, including more than ten new chapters.Part one focuses on risk assessment and management in the food chain. Opening chapters review the important topics of pathogen detection, microbial modelling and the risk assessment procedure. Four new chapters on pathogen control in primary production follow, reflecting the increased interest in safety management early in the food chain. The fundamental issues of hygienic design and sanitation are also covered in more depth in two extra chapters. Contributions on safe process design and operation, HACCP and good food handling practice complete the section.Parts two and three then review the management of key bacterial and non-bacterial foodborne pathogens. A new article on preservation principles and technologies provides the context for following chapters, which discuss pathogen characteristics, detection methods and control procedures, maintaining a practical focus. There is expanded coverage of non-bacterial agents, with dedicated chapters on gastroenteritis viruses, hepatitis viruses and emerging viruses and foodborne helminth infections among others.The second edition of Foodborne pathogens: hazards, risk analysis and control is an essential and authoritative guide to successful pathogen control in the food industry. - Strengthens the highly successful first edition of Foodborne pathogens with extensively revised and expanded coverage - Discusses risk assessment and management in the food chain. New chapters address pathogen control, hygiene design and HACCP - Addresses preservation principles and technologies focussing on pathogen characteristics, detection methods and control procedures
