Publisher's Synopsis
Continuing in the tradition of seven previous editions, this book takes a holistic approach to food poisoning and food hygiene, explaining in clear and non-technical language the causes of food poisoning with practical examples from "real-life" outbreaks. The book retains its longstanding clarity, while being thoroughly revised and its perspective broadened. For the first time, it includes coverage of waterborne infections and sewage and, through judicious selection of case examples, indicates the global nature of food and water hygiene today.
