Description
Following the Milan Universal Exposition, the scientific debate
about food and nutrition has gained particular attention in
2015. As a result, this volume focuses on issues related to food
safety, consumption, research and technology. Within the
Hórisma project, funded by the University of Milano-Bicocca
and the University of Milan, four young scholars investigated
the possible developments of food production and consumption
from different perspectives through a critical analysis on food
trends in the international scenario. The main theme that links
all the essays collected in this book is the belief that stimulating
dialogue among different disciplines, as well as promoting an
integrated and multidisciplinary approach, is crucial to face all
the issues concerning food and its connections to law, technology,
society, and science.
