Readers will gain an understanding of the benefits, requirements and applications of this methodology; knowledge of the techniques used in the approach; and the required information and examples to be able to apply these techniques. For sensory, product development and marketing/market research professionals who are involved in the interpretation of consumer data or in product formulation/reformulation work based on consumer responses.
