International Handbook of Foodborne Pathogens:
- describes the management, control, and prevention of microbial foodborne disease
- analyzes transformations in the epidemiology of foodborne disease from increased transnational food exchange to examinations of new and emerging zoonoses
- discusses the prevalence and risk of foodborne disease in developing and industrialized countries
