This is a truly fabulous book and it's a steal at $6. The book is well-crafted and Baldessari's photos look perfect on the pages. The essays truly form a whole, as the rhythm of the book unfolds. I've been wishing for a book like this for ages. A book that truly fuses art with food. This book is a must have for any reader of the magazine Gastronomy.

I am a photographer [...] and also teach photography full time. In my commercial photography class, I asked my students to read some of the essays before they shoot food photography as part of their assignments. We had class discussion about the essays and it was great. We love it! Very smart, fun, and definitely highly recommended.
