Isaac Newton in the Kitchen

from the NYT’s: Isaac Newton in the Kitchen:
Harold McGee, who first bonded rigorous science to popular cookery in his 1984 book, “On Food and Cooking,” was doing a run-through for Thanksgiving dinner. His culinary investigations did not end with the book’s publication. He has spent the last 10 years working on a revision, just published by Scribner.
I want this book for christmas. Definitely.
