...Julia Child cookbook is like few others. Most recipes are accompanied by chatty scientific explanations of what's going on inside the food: "Because French bread stands free in the oven and is not baked in a pan, it has to be formed in such a way that the tension of the coagulated gluten cloak [coagulated gluten cloak!] on the surface will hold the dough in shape." And take her treatment of lobsters. She tells you how to determine their sex (the last pair of swimmerets on the male are hard, pointed, and hairless). She tells you how to kill...

They are a very physically beautiful people. The women are still beautiful when they're 60. They all want to know about America. None of them seem to know that America is making...
...milk ("The secretion of the mammary glands of cows, goats and sheep") and eggs ("the reproductive media of birds"). The one thing Living the Good Life most lacks is what Walden has in such abundance-a sense of real delight in the natural world. Man does not live by bread labor alone, nor did the Nearings, but you would not know it from their book...
