Over the last 150 years, public analysts have quietly protected us from food adulteration and fraud. Using their forensic skills to detect poison and guiding the courts through complex scientific evidence, food analysts have undersold themselves to the public. It is time to tell their story with this collection of memoirs from practicing and retired experts. Their accounts of the samples submitted to them, how they analysed them, and the tales that unfolded, make for a fascinating insight into the field. With funding in this area falling, this is a timely publication. Although food adulteration is less common, it is now on a global scale and public fears have never been higher. Research is still needed to maintain this vital service and this book should help preserve the safety of the profession for decades to come |
