This book is certainly not for the faint-hearted. From the very first chapter you are thrust deep into the historical roots of biotechnology and its impact on many of our staple foods. ... the editors have compiled experts in of each of the fields covered, including biofortification, genetic engineering and modified nutrients. ... The editors have provided a well-summarised reference book in an emerging area of nutrition science. With few other reference books of this magnitude available it certainly fills a need in the literature. ... this book certainly will have appeal to nutrition academics, researchers or biotechnology enthusiasts to be used as a comprehensive reference.
