Food Connections: Production, Exchange and Consumption in West African Migration (Anthropology of Food & Nutrition #10)
by Maria AbranchesFood Connections follows the movement of food from its production sites in West Africa to its final spaces of consumption in Europe. It is an ethnographic study of economic and social life amongst a close-knit community of food producers, traders and consumers and a wide range of small intermediaries that operate in Guinea-Bissau and Portugal. By investigating the way meanings of food and land are embedded in everyday experiences and relationships in the various phases of the movement, on both sides of the migration, it reveals the connections that transnational processes of food production, exchange and consumption generate between two lifeworlds.

Party Like a President: True Tales of Inebriation, Lechery, and Mischief From the Oval Office
by Brian AbramsThere&’s the office: President of the United States. And then there&’s the man in the office—prone to temptation and looking to unwind after a long day running the country. Celebrating the decidedly less distinguished side of the nation&’s leaders, humor writer Brian Abrams offers a compelling, hilarious, and true American history on the rocks—a Washington-to-Obama, vice-by-vice chronicle of how the presidents like to party. From explicit love letters to slurred speeches to nude swims at Bing Crosby&’s house, reputations are ruined and secrets bared. George Washington brokered the end of the? American Revolution over glasses of Madeira. Ulysses S. Grant rarely drew a sober breath when he was leading the North to victory. And it wasn&’t all liquor. Some presidents preferred their drugs—Nixon was a pill-popper. And others chased women instead—both ?the professorial Woodrow Wilson (who signed his love letters &“Tiger&”) and the good ol&’ boy Bill Clinton, though neither could hold a candle to Kennedy, who also received the infamous Dr. Feelgood&’s &“vitamin&” injections of pure amphetamine. Illustrated throughout with infographics (James Garfield&’s attempts at circumnavigating the temperance movement), comic strips (George Bush Sr.&’s infamous televised vomiting incident), caricatures, and fake archival documents, the book has the smart, funny feel of Mad magazine meets The Colbert Report. Plus, it includes recipes for 44 cocktails inspired by each chapter&’s partier-in-chief.

Emulsion‐based Encapsulation of Antioxidants: Design and Performance (Food Bioactive Ingredients)
by M. Ali AboudzadehThe limited aqueous solubility of bioactive pharmaceutical ingredients presents a tremendous challenge in the development of new drugs. In recent years, methods have been developed to protect these sensitive bioactive compounds, namely antioxidants, with the aim of increasing the public sanitation grades. Emulsion-based systems are particularly interesting as colloidal delivery encapsulation systems, because they can easily be created from food-grade ingredients using relatively simple processing protocols. It is one of the most favorable delivery systems to increase the solubility of phytochemicals, nutraceuticals and food additives.Emulsion‐based Encapsulation of Antioxidants: Design and Performance advances the field of colloid science through the investigation of the effects of formulation and process parameters that influence emulsion production. The book offers a deeper comprehension of the technological and biological aspects of the incorporation of encapsulated compounds in food matrices and explication of their activity. Chapters provide an overview of the status of emulsion-based formulations to encapsulate antioxidants, fabrication, properties, applications, and biological fate with emphasis on systems suitable for utilization within industry. Special emphasis is placed on the antioxidant activity of the carriers being the key advantage of these emulsion-based systems. The main aim of the book is to inspire and to guide fellow scientists and students in this field. Filled with illustrations, figures, case studies, practical examples, and historical perspectives, the book can also be used as a practical handbook or graduate textbook. For industry professionals, the book presents easy-to-achieve approaches to industrial pharmaceutical production.

A Woman's Place is in the Kitchen: dispatches from behind the pass
by Sally Abé'Fantastic, exciting deep dive into kitchen life from one of Britain's leading young chefs' TOM KERRIDGE'Sally really tells it how it is . . . This book will be a go to for those needing that bit of bravery and resilience in a world that needs more people like her' CANDICE BROWN'Wow. Sally's book is an insightful, honest account of a young cook's journey to an inspirational chef' ANGELA HARTNETTFrom the star of the Great British Menu, for readers who loved Kitchen Confidential and couldn't tear their eyes away from Boiling Point, a book that reveals the reality of working in restaurant kitchens - and how they need to change for the betterIt's a familiar trope: angry men berating each other in kitchens as pots furiously boil, sauces burn and a giant slab of beef rests in the background. The dominant view of a professional kitchen is one of chaos and pent-up fury - a gladiatorial contest of male ego. Why then do we also hear the misogynistic refrain that women 'belong in the kitchen' if, in a professional context, they're all but erased from them? A Woman's Place is in the Kitchen is the story of Sally Abé's rise to become an award-winning chef in the brutal world of restaurant kitchens; how a girl from the midlands who used to cook herself Smash to get by is now one of the most successful fine-dining chefs working today. More than that, Sally's story is also a stirring manifesto - drawing back the curtain on restaurant kitchens to show how she is endeavouring to change them for the better. Filled with stories of Michelin-starred food, the relentlessness of kitchens, as well as the hope for the future of the culinary landscape, Sally's memoir is set to become a classic.
