  Nigella Lawson is, whisks down, Britain's funniest and sexiest food writer, a raconteur who is delicious whether detailing every step on the way towards a heavenly roast chicken and root vegetable couscous or explaining why ?cooking is not just about joining the dots?. To paraphrase Cole Porter, How to Eat: The Pleasures and Principles of Good Food is the real turtle soup, not merely the mock. --Richard Story, Vogue magazineLawson's book ranks with the great cookbooks of the last fifty or so years?books that define the way we eat and prepare and think about food at a certain point in time and go on to become indispensable guides for a whole generation of home cooks. Her style is confident and relaxed and her advice is studded with good sense and wit. --Jonathan Burnham, Editor-in-Chief and President, Talk Miramax BooksThis book shouldn't be called How to Eat, but How to Live! --Candice Bergen
