Synopsis:

Food research (and funding) is becoming more and more focused on health.  While researchers and product developers have made great strides in food engineering, there needs to be increased focus on what happens when the food is actually digested.  How is the food absorbed?  Do the benefits remain? Digestion is a complex topic, and this will be the first book aimed at food researchers.  Authored by a physiologist and a food engineer, the book will be a welcome addition to the literature.
