senses of smell and taste are fundamental to all of us.
This book is a compilation of 18 of the 24 talks presented
at the 2004 RSC–SCI Flavors and Fragrances conference
at the Manchester Conference Center. The meeting was
spaced over two and a half days and saw speakers and
delegates from all corners of the world exchanging ideas
and information. The aim was to bring together scientists
from both industry and the academic world, who have a
common interest in flavors and fragrances. The subject
matter was intentionally broad, including natural prod-
ucts, fragrance chemistry, perfumery, and olfaction, as
well as foods and flavors. Chemistry was the central dis-
cipline and served as the common strand for the meeting.                                                                         Hans-Georg W. Leuenberger / Bertraud Nagel /
