'This book is both highly informatie and great fun. It is a classic 'did you know?' book. If you read it you will not be able to resist asking anyone around you the 'did you know?' question.'

'This is a book that should also interest the wider general public....every school and college, from primary schools to universities, in every country of the world should buy a copy for its library immediately. This publication should become an institution and I should like to be looking forward to an updated The Atlas of Food 2005.'
