Indigenous beverages and small-scale production are also covered to a significant extent.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e The overall approach is multidisciplinary, reflecting the true nature of the subject. Thus, aspects of biochemistry, biology (including microbiology), chemistry, health science, nutrition, physics and technology are all necessarily involved, but the emphasis is on chemistry in many areas of the book. Emphasis is also on more recent developments and innovations, but there is sufficient background for less experienced readers. The approach is unified, in that although different beverages are dealt with in different chapters, there is extensive cross-referencing and comparison between the subjects of each chapter.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAppropriate for food professionals working in the development and manufacture of alcohol-based drinks, as well as academic and industrial researchers involved in the development of testing methods for the analysis and regulation of alcohol in the drinks industry. \u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDivided into five parts, this comprehensive two-volume work presents:  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eINTRODUCTION, BACKGROUND AND HISTORY:\u003c\/b\u003e a simple introduction to the history and development of alcohol and some recent trends and developments.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eFERMENTED BEVERAGES: BEERS, CIDERS, WINES AND RELATED DRINKS:\u003c\/b\u003e the latest innovations and aspects of the different fermentation processes used in beer, wine, cider, liqueur wines, fruit wines, low-alcohol and related beverages.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSPIRITS:\u003c\/b\u003e covers distillation methods and stills used in the production of whisky, cereal- and cane-based spirits, brandy, fruit spirits and liqueurs.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eANALYTICAL METHODS:\u003c\/b\u003e covering the monitoring of processes in the production of alcoholic beverages, as well as sample preparation, chromatographic, spectroscopic, electrochemical, physical, sensory and organoleptic methods of analysis.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eNUTRITION AND HEALTH ASPECTS RELATING TO ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES:\u003c\/b\u003e includes a discussion on nutritional aspects, both macro- and micro-nutrients, of alcoholic beverages, their ingestion, absorption and catabolism, the health consequences of alcohol, and details of the additives and residues within the various beverages and their raw materials.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp\u003e Editor \u003cb\u003eAlan J.
