Review featured in The Times - 19 December 2014 "This book is in a class by itself. If you thought taste was located on your tongue, then this unique book will disabuse you of that notion and reveal how both eating and cooking are extraordinarily rich multisensory experiences." ( New York Journal of Books , 1 November 2014) "Their exhaustive analyses of everything from plate size to flavour incongruities are laced with details such as cutlery's evolution from Victorian marrow scoops and chocolate muddlers to today's textured spoons and "aromatic forks." ( Nature , 30 October 2014) " The Perfect Meal can't fail to entertain, inform and ultimately to dazzle." -- Heston Blumenthal, chef and owner of The Fat Duck. "Not many people are as ready to realise the importance of the senses, not only in cooking but in eating, as Charles Spence and Betina Piqueras-Fiszman ...This book demonstrates beyond doubt that gastronomy is the most complex creative discipline that exists." -- Ferran Adrià, elBullifoundation "Focussing on the brain's interpretation of our eating experience, pioneers Spence and Piqueras-Fiszman acknowledge the interdisciplinary nature of gastronomy, rendering a complex area of study both digestible and applicable." -- Ben Reade, Gastronome and Head of Culinary Research and Development at Nordic Food Lab " The Perfect Meal goes beyond the exotic ingredients and creative insights of the chef and into the realm of the diner's psychology. Using an accessible writing style that neither talks down to the reader nor dumbs down the science, the authors take us into the relatively unexplored world of the dining context: the gastrophysics of the visual, acoustic, tactile - not to mention taste and smell - influences that we are exposed to in every dining experience.This is a new approach to thinking about dining that will appeal to and inform anyone who has ever been convinced to buy a cookbook by its illustrations or who persists, despite failure, to try to get a booking at The Fat Duck ." -- John Prescott, Ph.D, author of Taste Matters: Why We Eat the Foods We Do. "Nowadays a great many chefs are realising that science also has a place at the table; that a dining experience is made up of far more than just good food. By understanding how we use our senses to interact with and appreciate food we may be able to further enhance our guests' dining experiences. This book looks at many topics which will become increasingly relevant to both chefs and our food culture as a whole in the coming years." -- Jozef Youseff, chef and author of Molecular Gastronomy at Home (www.kitchen-theory.com) "...packed with insights that are fascinating to anyone in possession of an appetite." -- Amy Fleming, The Guardian "One thing is for sure, after reading this book eating out will never be the same again...." -- The Oxford Martin Programme on the Future of Food, "This book is in a class by itself.

- i***i (439)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaYou've had those experiences where you buy from the big online used bookseller; wait a month for a book with no tracking; only to receive a beat-up, old book. That will not happen here. This business is a solid place to buy books on Ebay: unlike the big name online retailers, this company got the book to me in a few days; the condition was excellent; and it was packaged in a thick bubble-mailer. These guys treat you right. I'm very happy with this company.The Remains of the Day by Kazuo Ishiguro Everyman's Library Hardcover (#286282417997)
- p***r (25)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaBook arrived quickly and exactly as describe, safely packed in a padded envelope. I appreciated how this seller had an actual description of the condition of the book with photos instead one of those generic used book descriptions. I find this very important when buying a used book. I love the book and I would purchase from this seller again.An Inordinate Fondness for Beetles [Henry Holt Reference Book] by Evans HC (#286295512793)
