Meat Technology and Processing

Anagh Deshpande

Synopsis

"Meat Technology and Processing" delves into the significance of meat as a valuable source of animal protein, whether consumed as fresh or processed products. With the growing popularity of processed meat products worldwide, our book focuses on adding value to fresh meat through small-scale meat processing plants capable of producing a variety of fresh and cooked meat products.
Meat is crucial for the diets of individuals, especially children and pregnant women, due to its high protein and iron content. It has always played a significant role in livestock programs, providing rich nutrients and supplements, particularly in areas lacking cold chain infrastructure. Meat processing enhances the value of these products, with Europe and Asia leading the way in technological advancements.
Our book covers a range of practical topics essential for meat processing, from quality characteristics to by-product utilization. We provide detailed information on the nutritional benefits of various meats, including pork, beef, chicken, turkey, goose, and rabbit. The content reflects current global techniques used to improve manufacturing methods, making it an invaluable resource for students in the field of nutrition. Exercises are included to aid learning and teaching.

Churches and the Crisis of...

Andrew Root

Congregations often seek to combat the crisis of decline by using innovation to produce new resources. But leading practical theologian Andrew Root shows that the church's crisis is not in the loss of resources; it's in the loss of life—and that life can only return when we remain open to God's encountering presence. 
 
 
 
This new book, related to Root's critically acclaimed Ministry in a Secular Age project, addresses the practical form the church must take in a secular age. Root uses two stories to frame the book: one about a church whose building becomes a pub and the other about Karl Barth. Root argues that Barth should be understood as a pastor with a deep practical theology that can help church leaders today. 
 
 
 
This book pushes the church to be a waiting community that recognizes that the only way for it to find life is to stop seeing the church as the star of its own story. Instead of resisting decline, congregations must remain open to divine action. Root offers a rich vision for the church's future that moves away from an obsession with relevance and resources and toward the living God.
