Food Packaging Research and Consumer Response is the first book to comprehensively address the issues of graphics design and visual concepts from both basic research and applied points of view. Positioning the book specifically for foods and beverages to maintain a focus on a coherent set of topics, lead author Moskowitz and his colleagues present information in two ways. First, current knowledge is described through a search of the literature for graphics and package research in the food industry, with commentary and synthesis provided by the authors. Next, new knowledge from experimentation is presented and discussed based on new studies of how consumers perceive package designs and how best to optimize these designs. Combining 'how to' business methodology with a detailed treatment of the different facets of concept research, this book represents a unique contribution to business applications in food and consumer research methods.
