This volume results from the Eighth Basic Symposium held by the Institute of Food Technologists in Anaheim, California on June 8-9, 1984. The theme of the symposium was "Chemical Changes in Food during Processing." The speakers included a mix of individuals from academic institu­ tions, governmental agencies, and the food industry. Twenty speakers discussed topics ranging from the basic chemistry relating to food constituents to the more applied aspects of chemical changes in food components during food processing. It was the intent of the organizers to bring together a group of speakers who could address the chemistry of changes in food compo­ nents during processing from a mechanistic point of view. As a con­ sequence, the proceedings of this symposium emphasize the basic chemistry of changes in food constituents from a generic perspective which is intended to provide the reader with a background to address more specific problems that may arise.

This book tells the story of an individual who found Islam at a young age and married into the faith.

As a matter of fact he found that, for all the reasons he left his home country, he sincerely prayed for a speedy return.This book is aimed at the most general audience who are interested in contemporary Islam, however, embedded readers are expected to find a sublime message with regards the complications of the Islamic faith for new comers, and those who are being deceived into the fallacy of heaven on earth by making the so called Hijra or Islamic migration.
