Title: Constructive replies to others' opinions
Product review: I liked the book, but do agree there are shortcomings (as consructively provided by another "non-professional" reviewer.) I will not however recommend the book, as I was quite disapointed with the author's "blast" dismissing less than ingratiating (?) reviews by attributing them to "mean-spirited and inept reviewers." Rather arrogant sir - I too prefer that cookbooks have as few errors in direction and presentation as possible. Pointing out "room for improvement" in a first edition is constructive - why would you think your prospective customers inputs any less credible than your editors?
