When Food Kills: BSE, E.coli and disaster science
Pennington, T. Hugh (, Department of Medical Microbiology, University of Aberdeen, UK)
The 'food scare' concept took on new meaning in 1996, which opened with variant CJD emerging as the human form of BSE, and closed with Britain's worst E.coli O157 outbreak in central Scotland. As people died, so did trust in government and science. This book tells the story of these events, what led up to them, and what has happened since.
