{"product_id":"is-it-safe-to-eat-ian-shaw-9783540212867","title":"Is It Safe to Eat?: Enjoy Eating and Minimize Food Risks","description":"\u003cp\u003eStories about BSE and avian flue may get the headlines, but it is really the ordinary risks we face every day when preparing and eating food that primarily determine how safe it is. \"Is It Safe to Eat?\" clearly and carefully examines and clarifies the sometimes bewildering issues that we all can master so we can adjust our behavior to lead healthier, less anxiety-ridden lives. Noted food expert and author, Ian Shaw, also places the risks of food, food-born pathogens and food contaminants into the context of life's overall risks. Shaw makes the case that enjoyment of food and eating is a benefit that far outweighs the risks, at least if everyone is aware of those risks and takes sensible measures to minimize them. His easily understandable, passionate, yet authoritative and informative book helps you get a handle on the key issues such as GM food, cancer-causing agents and agrochemicals, natural toxins, BSE, E. coli, and more. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ian Shaw\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3540212868\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783540212867\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/06\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 251\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.11lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.46h x 6.40w x 0.75d","brand":"Ian Shaw","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48519791739135,"sku":"9783540212867","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_60f059fe-3e52-4764-a0cf-ed7b372aa743.jpg?v=1778738838","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/is-it-safe-to-eat-ian-shaw-9783540212867","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
