Food Allergy

<p><i>Food Allergy</i> is a unique book which uses a scientific approach to cover both pediatric and adult adverse reactions to foods and food additives. Following the successful formula of the previous editions, <i>Food Allergy</i> has established itself as the comprehensive reference for those treating patients with food allergy or suspected allergy.</p> <p>This fifth edition has been thoroughly revised and updated. It is a practical, readable reference for use in the hospital or private practice setting. Each of the chapters is capable of standing alone, but when placed together they present a mosaic of the current ideas and research on adverse reactions to foods and food additives.</p> <p>The book covers basic and clinical perspectives of adverse reactions to food antigens, adverse reactions to food additives and contemporary topics, including a review of the approaches available for diagnosis. <i>Food Allergy</i> is directed toward clinicians, nutritionists and scientists interested in food reactions and will be an invaluable resource for all those working in this field.</p>
