    This is a really complex book! it's is an exhaustive, technical dense treatise on the chemistry and physics of cooking.

    But I think you might enjoy and learn quite a bit from this more user frindly book Amazon.com: I'm Just Here for the Food: Version 2.0 (9781584795599): Alton Brown: Books

    The McGee book is not about recipes, but rather techniques and how and why things happen in the kitchen.

    My latest fav is Charcuterie by Ruhlman & Polcyn...Pork fat does indeed rule !!!!

    Amazon.com: Charcuterie: The Craft of Salting, Smoking, and Curing (9780393058291): Michael Ruhlman, Brian Polcyn, Thomas Keller: Books
