Résumé
This fascinating program looks at why we preserve and process foods, how we do it in different cultures and the health considerations we need to take into account when we do it today. The preservation of food has been a life-saving practice in every human society since the dawn of time. Food, by its very nature, begins to spoil almost as soon as it is harvested so, to survive and thrive in ancient times, people had to learn to preserve the bounty to see them through lean times. In frozen climates, meat was kept in the ice. In tropical climates food was dried in the sun. In moderate climates salt and oil did the work. And this preservation allowed mankind to put down roots and create a society by remaining in one location. Each culture preserved their local food sources using the same basic methods of food preservation such as drying, freezing, fermenting, pickling and curing. But, within cultures, the preservation of food isn?t strictly for sustenance. There are also cultural aspects. All across the world there are many religious and celebratory occasions where the preservation of foods now has a social and customary meaning. The approach is now taken that we preserve food because we want to, rather than because we have to. This program includes an introduction to the workings of HACCP.

Résumé
This book is about the nature of meaning, the relationship of meaning to the body, and the way in which meaning expresses itself in our health or lack of it. In another way it is about the conjunction of mind, body, and spirit. In a more practical perspective, the message is that meaning-full disease does make sense, that we do have a sound basis for a holism that includes meaning, and that we had better sort out our models of healthcare if we want to be the sorts of clinicians and healers our patients and clients deserve.

Résumé
This second edition of Health Aspects of Aging serves to broaden the perspectives of societal change due to increases in life expectancy, as well as the effects of age-related changes as they impinge upon the provision of health care for older persons. The growing presence of a large number of persons aged 65 and older worldwide has propelled a re-evaluation of the nature of life that is protracted to 100 years and beyond. The emphasis in this second edition is to replace the prevailing problem approach to aging by a problem-solving approach. The problem-solving approach of this volume has all.

Résumé
'Pure food' became the rallying cry among a divergent group of campaigners who lobbied Congress for a law regulating foods and drugs. James Harvey Young reveals the complex and pluralistic nature not only of that crusade but also of the broader Progressive movement of which it was a significant strand. In the vivid style familiar to readers of his earlier works, The Toadstool Millionaires and The Medical Messiahs, Young sets the pure food movement in the context of changing technology and medical theory and describes pioneering laws to control imported drugs and domestic oleomargarine. He explains controversy within the pure food coalition, showing how farming and business groups sought competitive commercial advantage, while consumer advocates wished to promote commercial integrity and advance public health. The author focuses on how the public became increasingly fearful of hazards in adulterated foods and narcotic nostrums and how Congress finally achieved the compromises necessary to pass the Food and Drugs Act and the meat inspection law of 1906.

Résumé
Assessing impact is increasingly critical to the survival of services: managers now require comprehensive information about effectiveness, especially in relation to users. Outlining a rigorously tested approach to library evaluation and offering practical tools and highly relevant examples, this book enables LIS managers to get to grips with the slippery concept of service impact and to address their own impact questions in their planning. The 2nd edition is fully updated to include international approaches to qualitative library evaluation, new international research, and current debates on the evolving nature of evaluation, as well as reflections on the importance of involving stakeholders and of evaluation to guide advocacy. This is an essential tool for practising library and information service managers and policy makers in the field. It will be equally relevant to LIS policy shapers and managers in public, education (schools, further and higher education), health and special libraries and information services working in any country or internationally. It will also be of interest to people engaged in professional education in the field as lecturers or students.

Résumé
"Food Is Culture explores the innovative premise that everything having to do with food - its capture, cultivation, preparation, and consumption - represents a cultural act. Even the "choices" made by primitive hunters and gatherers were determined by a culture of economics (availability) and medicine (digestibility and nutrition) that led to the development of specific social structures and traditions."--BOOK JACKET.
