It is estimated that more than 100 million food-related illnesses are recorded in the United States alone each year, from undercooked fast-food hamburgers to chicken contaminated with salmonella. Today there are added worries due to increased potential for food contamination on the global market, the prospect of terrorism against the food supply, and the lack of adequate regulation of food products and handling. Food safety has become a daily concern. Written by renowned food expert Morton Satin, Food Alert! Second Edition provides an up-to-date and comprehensive examination of the causes, dangers, and prevention of food-borne diseases. Other invaluable features include a special reference section covering all of the potentially dangerous diseases and bacteria caused by food, an appendix of food-borne illnesses by symptom, and helpful resources such as organizations, periodicals, and Web sites.
