is the first single-volume resource focused on the different mechanisms of flavor perception from food ingestion, to sensory image integration and the physiological effects that may explain food behaviors.The information contained is highly multidisciplinary, starting with chemistry and biochemistry, and then continuing with psychology, neurobiology, and sociology. The book gives coherence between results obtained in these fields to better explain how flavor compounds may modulate food intake and behavior.
When available, physiological mechanisms and mathematical models are explained. Since almost half a billion people suffer from obesity and food related chronic diseases in the world, and since recent research has investigated the possible roles of pleasure linked to the palatability of food and eating pleasure on food intake, food habits, and energy regulation, this book is a timely resource on the topic.
This book links these results in a logical story, starting in the food and the food bolus, and explaining how flavor compounds can reach different receptors, contribute to the emergence of a sensory image, and modulate other systems recognized as controlling food intake and food behavior. The influence of age, physiological disorders, or social environments are included in this approach since these parameters are known to influence the impact of food flavor on human behavior.
- Uniquely brings together multidisciplinary fields to explain, in a narrative structure, how flavor compounds may modulate food intake and behavior
- Includes discussions of chemistry and biochemistry, psychology, neurobiology, and sociology
- Presents an extremely current view that offers a wide perspective on flavor, an area of rapidly expanding knowledge
- Edited by renowned experts in the field of flavor perception
Academics working in the areas of sensory science, food quality, nutrition and human sciences; R&D professionals in food companies working to develop foods and nutritionists.

Elisabeth Guichard
Elisabeth Guichard is recognised as an expert in flavour analysis by the scientific community as demonstrated by her publications in peer review Journals (180) mainly in Food Science, her active participation as oral speaker (130) or by poster presentation (123) in the most famous congresses in the field and her position as associate editor in Flavour and Fragrance Journal. She is editor of 8 books and author of 72 book chapters. She developed innovative methodologies to better understand the interactions between aroma compounds and macromolecules at the molecular level in the aim to predict aroma release from food matrix taking into account their initial composition. Since 2008, E. Guichard focused her research on the dynamic release of aroma compounds during food consumption by human subjects differing in their oral physiology and its impact on dynamic sensory perception. She also studied odor-taste associations to restore taste perception in low salt/sugar/fat products.

Christian Salles
Christian Salles is research director at INRAE. His main research field carries on in-mouth mechanisms leading to flavour release and perception with in vivo and in vitro approaches. He coordinated the development of chewing simulators dedicated to in vitro approaches of temporal flavour release and food breakdown studies in controlled eating conditions. He has coordinated several projects related to the reduction of salt content in food and in particular a European project (TeRiFiQ – from 1/2012 to 12/2015) on the reduction of salt, fat and sugar in food, with 17 European partners including 11 SMEs. These last years, he focused his research on the temporal release of sodium according to food matrix composition and oral condition. He is the author of 80 publications in peer-reviewed journals, 117 communications in scientific congresses (oral and poster) and the author of 53 book chapters. He is the editor of 2 books.
