Title: Concise but Euro-centric
Review: I gave two stars to this book because it puts more emphasis on European food than non-European food. For example, its France section has pages after pages of recipes while the Japan section, has only a few with simple dishes, which to me, does not seem to introduce the multi-dimentional aspects of Japanese cuisine. Thailand is not even included, which is another example of the Euro-centric nature of this book. When the book's title bares a word, world, I expect equal representations of all of the countries.Although it is helpful to read brief summaries of each country's cuisine in this book, before recipes, due to the skewed representation of countries in the world, I started to wonder whether the summaries are even true.I find maps with regional cooking ingredients helpful.
