Download or read book The Mind of the Horse written by Michel-Antoine Leblanc and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2013-11-04 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Horses were first domesticated about 6,000 years ago on the vast Eurasian steppe, yet only in the last two decades have scientists begun to explore the mental capacities of these animals. In The Mind of the Horse, Michel-Antoine Leblanc presents an encyclopedic synthesis of scientific knowledge about equine behavior and cognition, providing experts and enthusiasts alike with an up-to-date understanding of how horses perceive, think about, and adapt to their physical and social worlds. Much of what we think we know about "the intelligence of the horse" derives from fragmentary reports and anecdotal evidence. Putting this accumulated wisdom to the test, Leblanc introduces readers to rigorous experimental investigations into how horses make sense of their world under varying conditions. He describes the anatomical and neurophysiological characteristics of the horse's brain, and compares these features with those of other species, to gain an evolutionary perspective. A horseman himself, Leblanc also considers the opinions of renowned riding masters, as well as controversies surrounding the horse's extraordinary mental powers that have stirred in equestrian and scientific circles. The Mind of the Horse brings together in one volume the current state of equine research and will likely stimulate surprising new discoveries.
Download or read book Meals in Science and Practice written by H L Meiselman and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2009-03-26 with total page 708 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The meal is the key eating occasion, yet professionals and researchers frequently focus on single food products, rather than the combinations of foods and the context in which they are consumed. Research on meals is also carried out in a wide range of fields and the different disciplines do not always benefit from each others' expertise. This important collection presents contributions on meals from many perspectives, using different methods, and focusing on the different elements involved.Two introductory chapters in part one summarise the key findings in Dimensions of the Meal, the first book to bring an interdisciplinary perspective to meals, and introduce the current publication by reviewing the key topics discussed in the following chapters. Parts two to four then consider how meals are defined, studied and taught. Major considerations include eating socially and eating alone, the influence of gender, and the different situations of home, restaurant and institutional settings. Part five reviews meals worldwide, with chapters on Brazilian, Indian, Chinese and Thai meals, among others. The final parts discuss meals from further perspectives, including those of the chef, product developer and meal setting designer.With its distinguished editor and international team of contributors, Meals in science and practice is an informative and diverse reference for both professionals and academic researchers interested in food from disciplines such as food product development, food service, nutrition, dietetics, sociology, anthropology, psychology, public health, medicine and marketing. - Summarises key findings in dimensions of the meal - Considers how meals are defined, studied and taught, including eating alone and socially and the influence of gender - Reviews the meaning of meals in different cultures

A total of 14 original studies and one comprehensive review were edited within five main topics: (i) production systems and rearing practices, (ii) prediction of meat quality, (iii) statistical approaches for meat quality prediction/management, (iv) muscle biochemistry and proteomics techniques, and (v) consumer acceptability, development, and characterization of meat products.
Download or read book Consumer Driven Innovation in Food and Personal Care Products written by S R Jaeger and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2010-08-30 with total page 697 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experts from around the world present changes in the global marketplace and developments in research methodologies underpinning new product development (NPD) in this essential collection. The business and marketing aspects of NPD, sometimes neglected in books of this type, are addressed alongside methods for product testing.Trends, processes and perspectives in consumer-driven NPD in the food and personal care product industries are addressed in the opening chapters of the book. Specific topics include evolution in food retailing and advances in concept research. Hedonic testing is the focus of the next section. Different viewpoints on consumer research methods and statistics for NPD are reviewed in later chapters. The final part of the book looks towards the future of innovation, covering the implications for NPD of topics such as human genetic variation in taste perception and neuroimaging.Several chapters are not standard scientific articles. Rather they are written records of conversations between two people on a particular topic related to consumer-driven innovation in foods and personal care products. In them the interviewees speak freely about their views and experiences in NPD, providing unique insights.Consumer-driven innovation in food and personal care products will broaden readers' understanding of the many approaches available to NPD personnel and ways in which they can be used to support innovation activities. - Provides expert insight into the changes in the global market place and developments in research methodologies underpinning NPD - Examines the business and marketing aspects of NPD, sometimes neglected in books of this type, are addressed alongside methods for product testing - Chapters review the different viewpoints on consumer research methods and statistics for NPD

Download or read book Transformation et consommation des denr es alimentaires en Afrique de l ouest centrale written by Bernard Yapo Kouassi and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2008 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La croissance démographique de l'Afrique de l'Ouest, ses conséquences sur la croissance urbaine et les crises socio-politiques récurrentes ont complètement modifié les conditions de production et de consommation alimentaire dans la sous-région. La demande en nourriture dans les principaux centres urbains est devenue exponentielle, avec une forte dépendance du marché international. Cette demande ne concerne plus seulement les produits alimentaires à l'état brut, elle porte aussi sur les denrées transformées telles que les conserves alimentaires, les produits congelés et les huiles végétales. Par rapport à cette demande forte en aliments de base, les populations ouest-africaines cherchent elles-mêmes à s'adapter en mettant davantage l'accent sur des innovations. Celles-ci concernent à la fois les nouvelles cultures pratiquées, dont notamment un développement extraordinaire de l'agriculture périurbaine, la conception de nouveaux aliments et l'évolution des anciens mets traditionnels. Ces innovations concernent aussi la façon de présenter ces nouveaux mets aux consommateurs urbains. Ainsi, le faible pouvoir d'achat des populations urbaines entraîne désormais le développement extraordinaire des aliments de rue, en lieu et place de la restauration moderne où le coût des aliments reste élevé. Ce livre étudie ces diverses innovations à travers les expériences de transformation et de présentation des aliments prêts à être consommés, il évoque aussi les risques liés à ces innovations. L'ouvrage est structuré en quatre chapitres ayant trait à des études de cas centrées sur le Burkina Faso, le Ghana et la Côte d'Ivoire.
