Thoughts
Very interesting stuff, this. Applying the scientific method to cooking, and he tells us the results of the experiments. Each chapter is quite short, covering one little thing, but there are a lot of chapters. One doesn't read this for the tips (though there are tips), one reads it for the general interestingness of it.
