Addressing both direct threats to humans, including the introduction of anthrax or smallpox, and indirect threats, such as natural sources of plant and animal disease and contamination, Spellman (environmental health, Old Dominion University) examines the state of the nation's food protection readiness. Using plain, nontechnical language, he explains what the federal government is doing to protect our food supply, and gives recommendations for further measures at each link in the domestic and imported food supply chain. The book includes a modified version of the Food and Drug Administration's Bad Bug Book, providing a detailed overview of 46 foodborne pathogenic microorganisms and natural toxins. Each listing includes information on organism's size and shape, source, symptoms it causes, diagnoses, and associated foods. The readership for the book includes general readers, students, and professionals. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
