Using Food Science and Technology to Improve Nutrition and Promote National Development - IUFoST Food Science and Technology Handbook edited by Gordon L. Robertson and John R. Lupien

The IUFoST (International Union of Food Science & Technology) Handbook is now available online. It is intended to transmit useful information on applications of food science and technology to those affiliated to both developed and developing countries. The chapters are freely available for download to ensure the widest-possible audience:

The handbook is a work in progress and the editors are happy to continue to accept contributions from all those who feel that their experiences in this area are relevant and worth passing on to a wider audience. The ideal chapter would be a case study demonstrating how the application of food science and technology has lead to improvements in nutrition and food safety as well as promoting national development. 

Potential contributors are invited to send a 500 word outline of their proposed chapter to gordonlrobertson@gmail.com. Once your outline has been accepted, the final chapter will be due within 3 months. Chapters should be a minimum of 3000 and a maximum of 6000 words and include colour photographs.
