Review: Interesting Ideas

I am giving this book 3 stars based entirely on the fact that it presents some interesting ideas.  As a cookbook, however, it is pretty poor. First, the author's command of the English language leaves much to be desired. Sometimes one has to make an educated guess to understand what the author means. Second, in some of the recipes a quantity has been accidentally omitted; is it a teaspoon, a tablespoon or a cup? Third, since it is a microwave cookbook, it would be good if the microwave wattages were given. I tried the eggs and found that my 1200 watt microwave was not the one the author had in mind, unless the intention was to produce rubber.  Another smaller criticism I would make is that the amounts given are not necessarily to everyone's taste; you might need a bit of experience to know that you would not enjoy a teaspoon of dijon mustard on your two eggs.
