Chemistry and Technology of Soft Drinks and Fruit Juices

The book is a collection of papers by various authors in this field. It gives you an appreciation of the tremendous effort that goes into producing your generic soft drink or fruit juice. The chemistry is nontrivial, and rarely covered in a general chemistry or biology text. Thus, you have to search for the rare book like this one, that does give technical details of the various processing steps. And not just of the processing. There is also considerable discussion about the packaging. Vital in preserving the contents for as long as possible. The average consumer, of course, has no inkling of all this. But now you do.
