Review: This is a comprehensive source of information for microwave heating and processing for people working in food processing, food science etc. It links the different disciplines involved such as electromagnetics, dielectric properties of food materials, heat and moisture transfer, solid mechanics, fluid flow, food chemistry, food microbiology, and packaging. This should aid product and process developers to produce higher quality and reliability with information on the use of microwaves for rapid, selective and more uniform heating to provide safe, high quality convenient foods.
