Cheese: Chemistry, Physics and Microbiology, Fourth Edition, provides a comprehensive overview of the chemical, biochemical, microbiological, and physico-chemical aspects of cheese, taking the reader from rennet and acid coagulation of milk, to the role of cheese and related foods in addressing public health issues.

The work addresses the science from the basic definition of cheese, to the diverse factors that affect the quality of cheese. Understanding these fermented milk-based food products is vital to a global audience, with the market for cheese continuing to increase even as new nutritional options are explored.

Additional focus is provided on the specific aspects of the ten major variety cheese families as defined by the characteristic features of their ripening. The book provides over 1000 varieties of this globally popular food.

Everett, David W
Dr. Everett is a Principal Investigator at the Riddet Institute and an adjunct Professor at Massey University in New Zealand. He is originally from Australia and completed his PhD in Food Science at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. His academic career includes a post-doctoral fellowship at the University of Guelph, Canada, and a food science faculty member at the Victoria College of Agriculture and Horticulture at the University of Melbourne in Australia and the University of Otago in New Zealand. More recently he was the holder of the Leprino Foods Endowed Professorship at California State University-San Luis Obispo where he also directed the Dairy Innovation Institute research center. He has worked on dairy industry projects at a federal government research center in Australia (CSIRO) to help develop a technology to manufacture hard cheese from ultrafiltered milk, and at a dairy industry-funded company as a science liaison manager to bring together publicly-funded researchers with the dairy industry to solve technical problems. His current research is on the impact of dairy food structure on digestibility and in vitro nutritional bioaccessibility.
