    Looking forward to reading the review. The book seems fascinating.

    Not that there is any chance of me buying a 6 volume, $625 encyclopedia of molecular gastronomy, but I wouldn't anyway since it was funded by Nathan Myhrvold's Intellectual Ventures which seems to be one, giant, shady, but ultimately completely legal protection racket: http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20100217/1853298215.shtml
