Food-borne disease and threat to food safety constitute a growing public health problem. Food safety refers to the conditions and practices that preserve the quality of food to prevent contamination and food-borne illnesses from farm to table, as food contamination could occur anywhere along the food distribution chain.

Essentials of Food Safety and Toxicology contains all the relevant issues challenging food safety and food toxicology. The text is in twelve chapters written in concise and simple language.
