A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

JOE KIVETT, CO-AUTHOR After years of calling his mother each time he had a question related to food safety or quality, Joe began researching the answers for himself. His original mission was to create a chart that outlined how long food products last. While conducting his research, Joe discovered a wealth of food-safety and food-quality information that complemented his food-longevity chart, which led to the creation of this simple guide, written specifically for the consumer. DR. MARK TAMPLIN, CO-AUTHOR Dr. Tamplin holds a PhD in Medical Sciences, specializing in Microbiology & Immunology. Over a 30-year international career working as a university researcher and advisor to government agencies, his research has explored how pathogens exist in the environment and food, and then how they cause disease in humans. Tamplin’s work has been published in over 110 scientific articles and a dozen books. With his expertise in food safety and enthusiasm to educate, becoming co-author of The Food Safety Book was a natural fit. He has been appointed by the U.S. Secretary of Agriculture to serve on the National Advisory Committee on Microbiological Criteria for Foods. Early in 2016, Dr. Tamplin blended his extensive knowledge of science with adventure in Phage, the first novel in his science thriller trilogy. Dr. Tamplin grew up in West Virginia and now splits his time between Atlanta and Australia. DR. GERALD J. KIVETT, CONTRIBUTING AUTHOR After earning his Wings of Gold with the U.S. Navy flight program in 1966, Dr. Kivett flew with Patrol Squadron Five in Jacksonville, FL, the fourth oldest squadron in the U.S. Navy. Discovering a passion for teaching and an interest in the medical field, Dr. Kivett returned to school and received his Doctor of Medicine degree from the University of Florida. Following six years of employment at two Naval Hospitals, he left active duty in the Navy and started his private practice in Orlando in 1984. Dr. Kivett eventually retired with the rank of Captain after 24 years of service. Educating his patients on a healthy lifestyle is an important aspect of his practice. Having seen a great number of food poisoning cases that could have been avoided with basic proper food safety knowledge, Dr. Kivett was pleased to write the chapter on foodborne illness in his son’s first published book, THE FOOD SAFETY BOOK. Dr. Kivett continues to stamp out disease as a family practice doctor in Orlando today.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Known as the "Kitchen Bible," THE FOOD SAFETY BOOK is a consumer's guide that answers just about every food safety, quality, and food storage-related question anyone might have. In years past, many children learned about kitchen-related topics from their mothers and grandmothers. Times have changed, and valuable lessons learned in the kitchen are not being passed on to the younger generations. THE FOOD SAFETY BOOK helps fill that void. THE FOOD SAFETY BOOK makes a great gift for newlyweds, new parents, college students, new home owners, and anyone interested in preparing safe, fresh, and great-tasting food. THE FOOD SAFETY BOOK provides information on: " Foods to avoid when pregnant " Baby food do's and don'ts " Preventing, identifying, and treating numerous foodborne illnesses (food poisoning) " Understanding product dating " Milk's true shelf life " How to keep food fresher longer " Selecting and storing over 75 fruits and vegetables, including a 41-page "A to Z Guide" " Storage and longevity for over 340 items including bakery items, frozen foods, refrigerated foods, fresh foods, shelf-stable foods, and even spices " How to reduce food waste " Holiday, party, and camping food safety The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that 48 million Americans are affected by foodborne illness each year, 128,000 are hospitalized, and about 3,000 Americans die. Reading THE FOOD SAFETY BOOK may help reduce the risk to you and your family of being affected by foodborne illness. THE FOOD SAFETY BOOK stems from more than a decade of research. Information was gathered from over 100 resources, including Dr. Mark Tamplin (a professor and renowned foodborne pathogen scientist with expertise in food safety), the Food Marketing Institute, the World Health Organization, the Centers for Disease Control, and the United States Department of Agriculture.
