With the world's growing population, the provision of a safe, nutritious
and wholesome food supply for all has become a major challenge. To
achieve this, effective risk management based on sound science and
unbiased information is required by all stakeholders, including the food
industry, governments and consumers themselves. In addition, the
globalization of the food supply requires the harmonization of policies
and standards based on a common understanding of food safety among
authorities in countries around the world. With some 280 chapters, the
Encyclopedia of Food Safety provides unbiased and concise overviews
which form in total a comprehensive coverage of a broad range of food
safety topics, which may be grouped under the following general
categories: History and basic sciences that support food safety;
Foodborne diseases, including surveillance and investigation; Foodborne
hazards, including microbiological and chemical agents; Substances added
to food, both directly and indirectly; Food technologies, including the
latest developments; Food commodities, including their potential
hazards and controls; Food safety management systems, including their
elements and the roles of stakeholders. The Encyclopedia provides a
platform for experts from the field of food safety and related fields,
such as nutrition, food science and technology and environment to share
