Gendered Agency in Transcultural Hinduism and Buddhism
Focusing on complex entanglements of religion and gender from a diversity of perspectives, this book explores how women enact agencies in transcultural Hindu and Buddhist settings. The chapters draw on original, in-depth empirical research in various contexts in South Asian religious traditions. Today, in an increasing number of such contexts, women are able to undergo monastic and priestly education, receive ordination/initiation as nuns and priestesses, and are accepted as ascetic religious leaders. They are starting to establish new religious communities within conservative traditions, occupying religious leadership positions on par with men. This volume considers the historical background, contemporary trajectories, and potential impact of the emergence of these new and powerful female agencies in conservative South Asian religious traditions. It will be of particular interest to scholars of religion, women’s and gender studies, and South Asian studies.
Emerging Technologies in Food Science
This book provides a comprehensive review of recent innovations in food science that are being used to tackle the challenges of food safety, nutritional security and sustainability. With a major focus on developing nations, like India, the book is divided into four main sections. The first section provides an overview of the food industry, while the second explores food safety in various segments, with an interesting account of street food safety – an important, yet often neglected aspect for safety parameters. The third section, on nutritional security and sustainability, explores various ways of maximizing nutrition and optimizing waste management in the food industry. The book closes wi...
Bioactive Molecules in Food
This reference work provides comprehensive information about the bioactive molecules presented in our daily food and their effect on the physical and mental state of our body. Although the concept of functional food is new, the consumption of selected food to attain a specific effect existed already in ancient civilizations, namely of China and India. Consumers are now more attentive to food quality, safety and health benefits, and the food industry is led to develop processed- and packaged-food, particularly in terms of calories, quality, nutritional value and bioactive molecules. This book covers the entire range of bioactive molecules presented in daily food, such as carbohydrates, protei...
Bioprocessing of Agri-Food Residues for Production of Bioproducts
This new volume presents original research and scientific advances in the field of the food bioprocessing, bioproducts, valorization of agricultural and food wastes, microbiology, and biotechnology. It explores the most important advances in the valorization of agri-food residues for the production of bioproducts and in the development of several bioprocessing strategies. The authors place a special emphasis on the challenges that the industry faces in the era of sustainable development and aim to facilitate the reduction of food loss and waste. This book demonstrates the potential and actual development and advances in the design and development of strategies and tools for the bioprocessing of agri-food residues for the production of bioproducts. Bioprocessing of Agri-Food Residues for Production of Bioproducts covers aspects related to biotransformation of agri-food residues such as mango seed, citrus waste, pomegranate husks, nut shells, melon peels, leaves and grains, cheese whey, among others.

Adding Value to Fruit Wastes
"Value Addition of Fruit Wastes: Extraction, Properties, and Applications provides the latest technologies used in fruit waste to extract, isolate, and characterize functional, active compounds and their diversified pharmacological, food, agricultural, and industrial applications. Divided in 3 sections, the book explores emerging technologies for extraction of functional components, thoroughly discusses value-added components and works as a guide to its applications. The book also covers fruit wastes for extracting starch to provide more cereal crops available as food, besides supporting the efficient utilization of fruit wastes to bring many more opportunities for extraction of functional c...
Sustainable and Resilient Supply Chain
Contributing to both theoretical and empirical literature on resilient and sustainable supply chain management, Sustainable and Resilient Supply Chain illustrates how theoretical approaches from other fields – like the conservation resource theory and systems theory – can be utilised.
Fruit and Vegetable Waste Utilization and Sustainability
Fruit and Vegetable Waste Utilization and Sustainability presents strategies to address the fruit and vegetable waste generated from agriculture and industrial processing. Beginning with the introduction of waste management, this book is divided into three sections. Section one addresses the valorization of fruit and vegetable waste for high-value products. Section two focuses on the techno-economic and environmental impact assessment of fruit and vegetable waste biorefinery through real-life examples of the life cycle assessment. Section three presents integrated biorefineries, policies, and case studies. This book is a valuable resource for food scientists, nutrition researchers, food industry professionals, academicians, and students in related fields. - Lists extensive definitions, case studies, and applications - Includes information on the integration of processes and technologies for biorefinery conceptualization - Addresses both agricultural and industrial fruit and vegetable waste
