Korean Food and Foodways


Book Description

This book offers an excellent introduction to Korean functional foods and shares latest important information for food scientists and nutritionists, including accurate, up-to-date information on Korean food science together with background information, archeological findings, as well as food methods and research on Korean fermented foods (e.g., grain wine, kimchi, jeotgal, and soybean sauces). It also discusses historical backgrounds and manufacturing method details of traditional food categories, such as rice cakes, sweets, fermented sauces, and alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, and helps us understand the full science behind Korean traditional food. This book elaborates on the various changes in food culture brought about by recent updates, and inspires future contributions of Korean food concepts, particularly regarding the latest research on the intersection of food and Traditional Eastern Medicine. While the book will be particularly valuable for researchers and scholars interested in specifics in food science, it will also appeal to traditional medicine researchers seeking new knowledge for current functional foods.

Developing a Sustainable Economy in Cameroon


Book Description

Developing a Sustainable Economy in Cameroon is an ambitious effort as the authors try to set a blue print for Cameroon's economy. In the 1980s facing economic crisis, and as dictated by the structural adjustment programme, Cameroon sharply cut public investment expenditures before later cutting government consumption which were followed by privatisation, liquidation of public companies and reduction in the size of the public sector. All these measures are believed to have had devastating effects on the economy. Given the performance of the economy so far the authors suggest that much more effort, with a strong commitment of the main stakeholders, is required to guarantee sustainable economic development in Cameroon. Truly, very few countries in Africa possess such enormous human and natural resources as Cameroon does. This volume brings out the challenges Cameroon faces in its quest for development as well as for designing appropriate strategies for addressing those development challenges.
