For the advanced user 3 out of 5 stars.

This is a very thorough book that contains several recipes I look forward to trying. Be advised, however, that the book is written with the British chef in mind - many vegetables are referred to by names your average US citizen is not familiar with (mange touts, pulses). Additionally, many ingredients are indicated by weight, which in combination with the complexity of some of the recipies, makes this a book better suited to the somewhat dedicated cook, rather than your average individual interested in eating properly without companionship.
For true gourmet only 3 out of 5 stars.

This book is not for those who are looking for a quick and simple dinner after a hard day's work. It's best to use this book for special occasions - like birthday - if you spend it alone. Ok, maybe it's for regular days too if you are an experienced cook who can't live w/o great good. The color photos are beautiful but the ingredient lists may scare you. This is a thin book with not many recipes.

Enjoy the pleasure of eating delicious dishes every time you cook, whatever the quantity.
