or she must wonder at that as yet undiscovered science that must underlie cooking, and whose development has, as yet, been so little aided by the laboratory biochemist, notable gourmets though many of them be.Brillat-Savarin thought, a hundred and sixty years ago, that he had invented that science and most gourmets look back on that period of the culinary art as the Golden Age of Gourmets (and Gourmands).It is clear from reading these four volumes of cell culture-cookery that the Golden Age is yet to come.The recipes are useful but in many cases they do not work very effectively and other and better recipes are already beginning to supersede them.The 'cookery-book' simile I have applied in this review to these books is, I think, justified both by the lack of any general theory of cell culture in the texts and by the intensely practical, laboratory-bench style of writing.
