This new edition is dedicated to:
All those consumers and manufacturers who use the E code wisely to improve the quality of food and of health;
the many scientists, manufacturers and consumers who have provided invaluable technical information;
all those journalists and broadcasters who helped begin a food buying revolution with the first edition;
my patient and dedicated publishers;
my Research Assistant, Jill Marsden, B.Sc, who continues to triumph over the problems of organizing ever increasing quantities of often contradictory scientific information;
the distinguished and still crusading former Minister of Health, David Ennals, for his perceptive and kind foreword;
Leslie Kenton for her foreword to the first edition;
Elizabeth Brown and Angela Beazley for their word-processing skills, often under great pressure;
