A wonderfully authentic cookbook!
I've never before found a cookbook like this which included so many dishes that my mother cooked for us as children. If you've eaten at a Cantonese household, you'll recognize many of these recipes, from the commonplace to the elaborate. My mother and I greatly enjoyed going over the dishes and many pictures together. I've already purchased 6 of these for myself and siblings!

this is REAL chinese cooking!
if ever i needed to duplicate my mom's home cooking (but never bothered to learn how), this is the book to do it. i ordinarily have a great dislike for most 'chinese' cookbooks, because they usually contain bastardized versions of traditional cantonese dishes i grew up on. if you want to know how chinese people really eat, get this book!!!

More about things NIN related, then actually about NIN
I bought this book in my continual search for information on my favorite band, Nine Inch Nails. And this book certainly had a lot of information to provide me with. However, the format used almost got to the point of being annoying.

What this book does it introduce a subject (the production of Pretty Hate Machine for example), mention that it heavily used synthesizers, then go into the history of synthesizers. After 2 pages, then it gets back to the topic at hand. And while sometimes I was intrigued by the information provided (say, for FLOOD), most times it was something that either didn't need to be mentioned in a book about Trent Reznor, or could be in a book about the industrial music movement.

I used the same method in my senior composition class to pad papers, but in this case it wasn't warranted.

Come to think of it, the book tries at times to be an all encompassing encyclopedia of industrial music, which isn't why I bought it at all. I suppose I'm more knowledgeable about it because of the information provided, but it wasn't by choice.

The information about NIN is fascinating, and ends with the recording of their live album "And All That Could Have Been." Overall, I liked the book, but could have lived without the extraneous information about everything under the sun.

Good, yet get more information
I wouldn't say I am a fanatic Nin fan but a really really big fan. Tommy Udo wrote a great book it gives a lot of good information and goes over the history pretty well. But He made a mistake. There is a part in one of the first chapters where he is explaing the albums. And he said that the Live Album was called And All That Might Have Been. When in fact it is titled And All That Could Have Been. And he takes quotes out of context. Where one time he says that Trent Said. "I see that I am saving Rock n' Roll. billy Corgan failed, now it's all up to me." He said that in this context "people are saying that I see that I am saving Rock n' Roll, Billy Corgan Failed, so it's up to me whenI really don't ever like Rock that much". Great book though, he just needs to leave thigns the way they are.
