Rezensionen / Stimmen
"As you would expect from two editors that have such high reputations in their fields, this book is a very serious and comprehensive work. . ..a great deal has been crammed into this single volume, but not at the expense of readability and information quality. . ..forward-looking in its treatment of current and expected trends."
---Oils & Fats International
". . .this 800-page book covers almost everything in this field, from the history of lipid usage to modern processes and from traditional natural food lipids to synthetic surfactants."
---Colloids and Surfaces
". . .There is much valuable information collected in this text and it is a useful reference text on an impressive range of subjects relevant to lipid technology. . ..the text is recommended for purchase by libraries and companies involved in lipid science and technology."
