| "Food Safety = Behavior : 30 Proven Techniques to Enhance Employee Compliance" |
| "This book helps in Achieving food safety success which requires going beyond traditional training testing and inspectional approaches to managing risks It requires a better understanding of the human dimensions of food safety In the field of food safety today much is documented about specific microbes timetemperature processes post-process contamination and HACCP-things often called the hard sciences There is not much published or discussed related to human behavior-often referred to as the soft stuff However looking at foodborne disease trends over the past few decades and published regulatory out-of-compliance rates of food safety risk factors it's clear that the soft stuff is still the hard stuff Despite the fact that thousands of employees have been trained in food safety around the world millions have been spent globally on food safety research and countless inspections and tests have been performed at home and abroad food safety remains a significant public health challenge Why is that? Because to improve food safety we must realize that it's more than just food science; it's the behavioral sciences too In fact simply put food safety equals behavior This is the fundamental principle of this book If you are trying to improve the food safety performance of a retail or food service establishment an organization with thousands of employees or a local community what you are really trying to do is change people's behavior The ability to influence human behavior is well documented in the behavioral and social sciences However significant contributions to the scientific literature in the field of food safety are noticeably absent This book will help advance the science by being the first significant collection of 50 proven behavioral science techniques and be the first to show how these techniques can be applied to enhance employee compliance with desired food safety behaviors and make food safety the social norm in any organization"

In this probing new book Emmanuel Todd investigates the cartography and sociology of the three to four million who marched in Paris and across France and draws some unsettling conclusions For while they claimed to support liberal republican values the real middle classes who marched on that day of indignant protest also had a quite different programme in mind one that was far removed from their proclaimed ideal Their deep values were in fact more reminiscent of the most depressing aspects of France s national history conservatism selfishness domination and inequality By identifying the anthropological religious economic and political forces that brought France to the edge of the abyss Todd reveals the real dangers posed to all western societies when the interests of privileged middle classes work against marginalised and immigrant groups Should we really continue to mistreat young people force the children of immigrants to live on the outskirts of our cities consign the poorer classes to the remoter parts of the country demonise Islam and allow the growth of an ever more menacing anti-Semitism? While asking uncomfortable questions and offering no easy solutions Todd points to the difficult and uncertain path that might lead to an accommodation with Islam rather than a deepening and divisive confrontation"

| "Our Wound Is Not So Recent - Thinking the Paris Killings of 13 November" |
| "On 13 November 2015 Paris suffered the second wave of brutal terrorist attacks in a year leaving 130 dead and many more seriously injured How are we to make sense of these violent acts and what do they tell us about the forces shaping our world today? In this short book the influential philosopher Alain Badiou argues that while these violent events are commonly portrayed as acts of Islamic terrorism in fact they attest to a much deeper malaise that is connected to the triumph of global capitalism and to new forms of imperialism that involve the weakening of states such that whole regions of the world have been turned into ungovernable zones run by armed gangs in which ordinary people are forced to live the most precarious lives These zones have become the breeding ground for a new kind of nihilism that seeks revenge for the domination of the West And it is this new nihilism on to which Islam has been grafted that exerts a particular appeal to the young men and women on the margins who carried out the atrocities in Paris The tragedy of 13 November might appear at first sight to be rooted in immigration and Islam but our wound is not so recent it is rooted in a deeper set of transformations that have reshaped our world creating small islands of privilege amidst large masses of the destitute and depriving us of a politics that would offer a serious alternative to the present"
