Dr. Riviere investigates the potential health consequences of pesticides, food additives and drugs, demonstrating how science can be applied to make risk assessments. He differentiates between "real risks" and "phantom risks," unearthing numerous fallacies in the public perception of risk assessment and evidence of Food Safety is based on credible, scientifically correct data rather than irrational fears propagated by media coverage concerning food safety.
This book explores several compelling issues in chemical food safety, including:
- Food security and the world of bioterrorism.
- Toxicity of natural compounds and artificial additives in foods.
- The toxicity of pesticides in food.
Issues of biotechnology and genetically modified food.
With its focus on how the results of toxicity are applied in the real world, Chemical Food Safety A Scientist's Perspective will be a valuable addition to the libraries of food scientists, dieticians, animal producers, veterinarians and anyone else with a professional or personal interest in risk assessment, toxicology, epidemiology or food safety.
