Abstract
This book contributes to definitional, institutional and analytic understanding of one of society’s great challenges and places this challenge firmly within the reach of policy instruments both conventional and novel. Its survey of a large body of literature, and the diverse stakeholder landscape, on food loss and waste (FLW) is enlightening. It provides a good entry point for the lay reader to several vexed issues (such as definition and past attempts at measurement) while providing good summaries for the guidance of researchers and policymakers (such as regulatory approaches taken and mapping of problems to policy frameworks).
