...best cookbooks are much more than collections of recipes. They involve the history, economics, technology, climate, social order and religion that shape a nation's cooking. This concern with context is evident in the major cookbooks of the past few years, in which origins are sought out, variations explored and invention honored. At the same time, they have marked a retreat from the ostentatious extremes of "new" cuisines, from what Author Paula Wolfert calls "front of the mouth" food. "Though these dishes may appeal to the tips of our tongues," she maintains, "there is no real depth to them...

Even so, she is astonished when, swollen with her second pregnancy, she learns that Mark has been sleeping with Washington Hostess Thelma Rice. "The most unfair thing about this whole business," she begins, "is that...

...personal data basing, however, makes good sense. Two of the most widely touted applications, balancing checking accounts and filing kitchen recipes, are better done with pencil and paper than on screen. Checkbooks can be carried in a pocket and filled out on the spot. For recipes, one good cookbook holds more data than eight floppy discs and can be thumbed with wet or sticky hands. Mastering data-base software can also be a taxing task, especially for the neophyte. Most data-base programs are marketed for business use; they come with powerful features and inch-thick manuals. Even with...
