  • Five keys to growing safer fruits and vegetables : promoting health by decreasing microbial contamination.

    • Authors: - (2012)

  • The importance of fruits and vegetables in nutritious and healthy diets is well recognized, and in recent years consumers have been encouraged to eat more of these products. For many countries, particularly developing countries, these products have become a valuable commodity. At the same time, food safety problems linked to the consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables contaminated with microorganisms are increasing. Recent foodborne outbreaks linked to the consumption of leafy greens, tomatoes, sprouts and green peppers clearly demonstrate that the consumption of contaminated fruits and vegetables represents an important source of foodborne disease

  • Hospitals in a changing Europe

    • Authors: Martin McKee; Judith Healy (2002)

  • This book explores the competing pressures facing policymakers across Europe as they struggle to respond to these complex challenges. It argues that hospitals, as part of a larger health system, should focus on enhancing health outcomes while also responding to public expectations. Adopting a cross-national, cross-disciplinary perspective, the study assesses recent evidence on the factors driving hospital reform and the strategies used to improve organizational performance. It reviews the evidence from eastern as well as western Europe and combines academic research with real-world policy experience. It looks at the role of hospitals in enhancing health rather than simply processing patients. The book concludes that hospitals cannot be managed in isolation from society and the wide...
