Reviews
[These recipes] shed light on aspects of social life related to food preparation and eating at the time. Here we are given intriguing, sometimes alluring quotes, on processes of preparation and what the Mesopotamians ate. Often the author has to patch and bridge from the fragmentary bits; what certain items and methods might have been, but he does this with the support of his considerable scholarship, and with a flare that suggests that M. Bottéro must be an accomplished cook himself. These rare recipes carefully reconstructed and sometimes deduced can seem surprisingly modern, yet this book is ever fascinating. . . . It makes one yearn to know more about these ancient sophisticates, as revealed in the swirling robes and haughty profiles of reliefs in the British Museum and in Berlin. Economically illustrated, with neat chapter headings, it is elegantly presented. The engaging chapters go from the practical to the mythical. Truly a wonderful read., In this well-structured volume, Bottéro shares the vast scope of his knowledge of ancient Mesopotamian cuisine. Although meticulously documented for the scholar and student, its lucid text also appeals directly to the adventurous home cook whether he/she wishes to recreate a meal of muddulu (salted meat) or a vegetarian sipku (porridge). If it is true that 'we are what we eat' then this book brings us closer to the human side of those who produced one of the first great civilizations to evolve on our planet.

    I can't recommend this seller enough! This is my second purchase, and both times the books arrived in excellent shape and exactly as described. What truly sets this seller apart is their exceptional attention to packaging detail. My latest book arrived in pristine condition, carefully packed in a box with cut-to-size pieces of foam lining. I couldn't be happier!

    I highly recommend this seller! It has become a rarity to receive an item so well-packaged! If you've bought books over ebay recently, you know that it is common practice to throw the book in an envelope without any protection. That is not happening here--time and care was put into the shipping. The item was in new condition. Worth every penny. Check out the inventory here. Lots of interesting titles.
