Bought and paid for the book. Seller said it was damaged and they would find another. Then I received a shipping notice. When it didn’t arrive when they said, I waited a week and contacted seller. Received a quick refund. Now it is listed again for twice the price. This seller is a ripoff artist and should be banned from eBay.

  • A great book with a design flaw

    This book contains a wealth of information on cooking, and the food service industry. The recipes look decent, the few I have done are simple and flavorful enough. The Book itself though is a monster. It is too heavy to hold up and read, and large enough that I have taken to reading this book on the floor, because my desk is too small to accommodate it. The slightly awkward sizing makes it difficult to read on a lap, and is even worse when open. This is the only reason the book is not excellent.

  • Great Textbook and Cookbook

    Fell in love with the book when my stepdaughter went to Culinary Arts School and brought it home as her textbook. Detailed instructions and explanations of both the hows and the whys of each dish make it invaluable for someone who loves cooking.

  • great thanks!

    I like it because it has a lot of info on cooking,and I'm learning a lot about the hitory of the different types of cuisine and thechefs that mastered them. the best part about this book is that it cotains a lot of different recipe's theat I can use. I baught it because I need it for school.

  • On Cooking

    I love the pictures and it's a very easy read. It's an absolutely beautiful book. I bought it for one of my classes; however, I saw it at Barnes and Noble and I wanted to buy it despite the cost. It's a very well made book that explains the food science of recipes.

  • Love to Cook?

    It is a beautiful book, well written and easy to understand. I will be keeping this book for years. The receipes are delicious and the instructions are informative and thoughtful. I definately recommend this book.
