Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'importation des fruits exotiques en augmentation constante et les destinations lointaines mises à la portée d'un nombre de plus en plus grand de voyageurs amènent à se trouver en présence de fruits "nouveaux" dont on ne connaît ni le nom ni l'usage. Notre curiosité sera satisfaite à la lecture de cet ouvrage : descriptions évocatrices, références historiques, coutumes alimentaires, propriétés thérapeutiques nous familiarisent avec tous les fruits exotiques rencontrés sur les marchés du monde entier. Il nous fait redécouvrir aussi ceux que nous croyions connaître. La plupart des fruits décrits dans cet ouvrage sont illustrés de photos en couleurs qui faciliteront leur identification. Leurs noms ont été donnés en français, en anglais, et en espagnol. Mais, les noms vulgaires étant souvent imprécis, on a jugé utile de répertorier chaque espèce sous son nom botanique pour éviter toute confusion.

Book Food Composition Data

Download or read book Food Composition Data written by H. Greenfield and published by Springer. This book was released on 2012-11-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About twenty years ago, there was a recognition in Europe that real benefits would flow from coordinating the manner in which food composition tables were produced in the various countries of Europe. Subsequent development of computerised nutritional data bases has further highlighted the potential advantages of working together. Such cooperation could lead to improved quality and compatibility of the various European nutrient data bases and the values within them. This realisation was one of the driving forces behind the development of the Eurofoods initiative in the 1980's when those people in Europe interested in data on food composition began working together. This initiative received further impetus with the establishment of the Eurofoods-Enfant Concerted Action Project within the framework of the FLAIR (Food-Linked Agro-Industrial Research) Programme of the Commission of the European Communities. It was quickly recognised that the draft guidelines for the production, management and use of food composition data which had been prepared under the aegis of INFOODS (International Network of Food Data Systems, a project of the United Nations University), would be especially applicable to the objectives of the Concerted Action. The guidelines have been written by two recognised experts. Many people associated with FLAIR Eurofoods-Enfant have added constructive criticism and advice to that offered previously by those associated with INFOODS. Thus the guidelines are backed by a consensus in the community of those responsible for the production and use of food composition tables and nutrient data bases.

Book The Ocean Challenge Badge

Download or read book The Ocean Challenge Badge written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ocean covers 70 percent of the Earth’s surface, and is essential for life on our planet – even for those of us who live nowhere near the sea! It provides us all with food and other materials that we need, regulates our climate and provides half of the oxygen we breathe. The ocean also offers us various means of transport and opportunities for recreation. People have long thought that the ocean was so wide and bountiful that it would go on supplying our needs forever, but this is not the case: human activities are causing significant damage to life in the ocean. People are often unaware of the problems created by this heavy reliance, as few of us have the opportunity to look beneath the surface of the sea and see the damage that our actions have caused. This is where the Ocean Challenge Badge comes in: let it take you on a journey to discover the ocean! It is packed with activities to help you learn about how the ocean works, the creatures that live in it, and just how important it is in our everyday lives. You will also discover how YOU can play a role in protecting our ocean for future generations. We hope you will be inspired to take the challenge and celebrate our ocean. So dive in and begin your aquatic discoveries!

Book Koromfe

Download or read book Koromfe written by John Rennison and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strong linguistic and ecological pressures are gradually pushing Koromfe, the local language spoken in the north of Burkina Faso, West Africa, towards extinction. Spoken by, at the most, 10,000 people, Koromfe has defied political and cultural domination by other local languages. Few other researchers have studied Koromfe in such detail and this is the first detailed linguistical analysis of its kind. Consequently, data is provided which sheds light on many previously unanswered questions concerning both Koromfe and genetic and general linguistic issues. The information which constitutes this Descriptive Grammar is based on field work made by the author. As a Gur or Voltic language, the author shows how Koromfe shares many phonological, lexical, morphological and syntactic affinities with other such languages.
