Here's a question of the moment: Would you rather eat at one of French chef Alain Ducasse's pair of three-star restaurants or spend who knows how many hours preparing the spit-roasted lobster with caramelized salsify and almonds from his new cookbook, Ducasse: Flavors of France (Artisan; 288 pages; $50)?

From his ranch in Wyoming, Ellwood sounds like a broken man, and in a too literal sense he is. He was thrown from a horse last month, fracturing his neck. (No, he was not paralyzed or treated by managed care.) The painful healing process has given him a lot of time to consider how disappointed he is with the system he helped...
