Processing of fruits produces large volumes of wastes and by-products, which can create environmental problems. However, these fruit processing residues have amazing nutritional composition, containing good amounts nutrients and biofunctional components. So, the current trend in the present world it to efficiently utilize these fruit wastes and byproducts and minimizing their impact on the environment. Proper utilization of fruit processing wastes and by‐Products would not only emerge as a source of extra profit to the fruit processing industry but also will help in lessen the environment pollution due to these fruit processing byproducts. ‘Handbook of Fruit Wastes and By‐Products: Chemistry, Processing Technology and Utilization’ will be the first book devoted to fruit processing wastes and by-products of wide range of important fruits including tropical, subtropical, and temperate fruits. Key features: · Provides comprehensive information about the chemistry of wastes and byproducts obtained during fruit processing · Provide in-depth information about the bioactive potential of fruit processing wastes and byproducts · Explores new strategies used for proper valorization of fruit processing residues · Describes the utilization of nutraceutical components derived from fruit processing residues in fabrication of novel functional foods Although, there are some general books on byproducts of food processing industry, but they are limited in context, related to only some particular fruits. The unique quality of this book is that it provides a full-length study of the different developments made right from the basic technologies involved in management of fruit wastes and byproducts to the recent advancements and future areas of research to be done on this subject. This book would be a valuable resource for scientists, researchers, professionals, and enterprises that aspire in management of fruit processing wastes and byproducts, and their utilization.

This is a story of teenage dreams, which, as any Peel fan knows, are hard to beat. Between 1967 and 2004 John Peel picked over 2000 bands to come and record over 4000 sessions to be played on his radio show. Many were young and had never been in a recording studio before, for some it was the start of an illustrious career, for others it was the only recognition their musical talent ever got. For over 35 years the cream of British musical talent made the journey to the BBC's studio in Maida Vale, from Pink Floyd to Pulp, the Small Faces to the Smiths. And because John Peel was so respected his sessions took on a legendary status - they were a rite of passage that every new band wanted to go through. Unfettered by commerical pressure the Peel Sessions were a unique British institution - an archive of music that reflects one man's passion for finding and encouraging new music. Includes a full sessionography listing songs, band members and broadcast dates. Jarvis Cocker writing about his first Peel Session aged 18 (Wayne the drummer was 15): 'We travelled down to Maida Vale in a van driven by a very strange man we'd contacted via a card pinned to the Virgin record shop noticeboard. We'd had to borrow lots of equipment from a band called The Naughtiest Girl Was a Monitor 'cause we didn't have enough stuff of our own. The session was to be produced by Dale Griffin, who used to be the drummer in Mott the Hoople; I seem to remember that he was wearing cowboy boots. I think the crisis point came when Wayne was attempting to get a home-made synth-drum to work that a friend of his at school had made out of a rubber burglar-alarm mat and an old electronic calculator - Dale Griffin looked at this 15-year-old kid crouching on the floor bashing what looked like a doormat with some wires coming out of it and just put his head in his hands. But to his credit, the session did get finished and after it, everything else started for me...'
