Preface
The preface to the First Edition of the encyclopedia provided a detailed account of its breadth and aims. This breadth is maintained in the Second Edition and enlarged to include more of the associated areas of food science. A number of these areas are of current prime importance, including food safety, functional foods, and neutraceuticals. Seventy years ago, when the discipline of food science and technology was first introduced, the accepted definition was the science concerned with food "from the farm gate to the consumer." It later became obvious that many of the conditions associated with conventional agricultural production practices had a definite impact on the quality and quantity of the resultant food, so the lines between agricultural production and food science and technology became blurred.
The above definition of food science and technology was appropriate for food production techniques in the early part of the twentieth century. We were primarily dependent on fresh fruits and vegetables in season and meats, augmented by commodities which could be easily stored such as grains, root crops, dried fruits and fermented foods, and beverages. The "New England boiled dinner," composed of corned beef, potatoes, carrots, cabbage,turnips, onions, and parsnips, was a good example. A major change from a seasonal concept of food supply to a processed system occurred in the 1920s with the development of food preservation techniques such as conning, freezing, dehydration, and chemical preservation. When this was combined with developments in packaging, storage, transportation, and consumer marketing, the rate of change to a processed-food society was speeded up. Today we have the advantages of a stable processed food supply combined with fresh fruits and vegetables produced locally and also shipped in from other countries. This has produced the best of both systems, but it has some problems. The concentration of production, packaging, storage, and transportation into large units has increased the possibility of contamination with chemicals and microorganisms, a major concern of regulatory official; it may also be a source of concern for readers of this encyclopedia. Hopefully, the sections on food safety, estimation of risk, interpretation of risk, and management of risk will allay the fears for the safety of the global food supply.
Another change in the concept of food science and technology occurred in the 1950s with increased concern over adequate nutrition in food and the nutrition delivery system. The science of nutrition at that point had developed to the point where meaningful predictions could be made on the effect of components in the food supply on the health and well-being of the populace. This led to increased emphasis on food processors to maintain the nutritive value of their products in order to supply the "Acceptable Daily Intake" recommended by governmental and other agencies. However, maintenance of nutrients already present in food was not enough, and the science of fortification was developed primarily to prevent the development of conditions which could lead to a deterioration in the overall health of the individual. This concept was enlarged to encompass components of the diet which were not necessarily related to deficiencies and disease but were related to overall well-being. This led to the concept of "Neutraceuticals," components which combine nutritive and pharmaceutical properties. The term "functional foods" was also introduces to describe components which have a technological function in foods as well as a nutritive or health benefit. Both areas are rapidly expanding and may be of interest to readers of this encyclopedia.
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
There are three groups of people who make possible the completion of a work of this size: the Editorial Board, the contributors, and the production personnel. The members of the Editorial Board were chosen for their understanding of particular areas of food science and technology that I thought should be given more consideration in the Second Edition. I believed that the First Edition had an excellent set of papers, primarily in technology, and I wanted to build on that base. All of the editors enjoy a superb reputation in their respective fields and I am grateful to them for their willingness to share opinions and expertise. The contributors supplied the real foundation for the encyclopedia and I am most grateful for their willingness to contribute their time and energy to write the papers. This expression of professionalism is reassuring for the future of the discipline. Finally, I would like to thank the group of professionals at Wiley for their administrative support in what otherwise would be an overwhelming assignment.

- Food plant inspection, eg, food laws and regulations.
Apart from members of the editorial advisory board, hundreds of professionals in the academic, industry, and government have personally counseled me on many aspects of the work. Their combined effort is reflected in the articles in this encyclopedia: appropriateness of the selection of topics; diverse expertise and background of each contributor; the excellent treatment of each article. The users are the best judge of these claims.
A small portion of the text is devoted to cover nontechnical data:
- Descriptions of selected scientific institutions, eg, Institute of Food Technologists.
- Food science and technology in selected countries in the world, eg, International Development: South Africa.
- Research and development in major U.S. government agencies, eg, U.S. Department of Agriculture.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Basically, there are three groups of people who make the completion of this large work possible: the advisors, the contributors, and the production personnel.
The advisors include the members of the editorial board, my friends, colleagues, and other experts. They helped me to formulate the subject matters, select contributors and reviewers, and solve scientific, technical, and engineering matters. ALthough it is not possible to name them all here, they are the foundation of the project. And I am grateful to them.
The contributors are the components and parts and give substance to the encyclopedia. Their contribution is most appreciated.
The production team puts the parts together and you are the best judge of their professionalism. Personally, I am specially grateful to Michalina Bickford, the managing editor for he encyclopedia.
The support of my family will always be appreciated.
