Zusammenfassung:An integrated, risk based food safety system is the essential scientific basis for better priority setting. However, there has been little advance about how to integrate knowledge about food safety risks into a system wide risk analysis framework. This book begins to answer this need by bringing together leading scientists, risk analysts, and economists, as well as experienced regulators and policy analysts. It includes a multidisciplinary introduction to the existing data, research, and methodological and conceptual approaches on which a system wide risk analysis framework must draw. It also recognizes that efforts to improve food safety will be influenced by institutional contexts. Intended to be accessible to people from a wide variety of backgrounds, the book retains the conceptual sophistication needed to understand the challenges that are inherent in improving food safety.
