What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Arranged alphabetically from abalone to zampone, the majority of entries in this cook's encyclopaedia deal with ingredients and processes used in cooking. All of the common processes from bottling, brewing, brining, curing, smoking and vacuuming are described, and although this is not a recipe book, some recipes have been included to illustrate the use of an ingredient, or how to prepare it in ways other than those commonly used in British or American cooking. The aim is to provide cooks with a good knowledge of the fundamentals of cookery - ingredients. The book lists as wide a range of ingredients as possible, provides information on their background, identifies their particular characteristics, and offers advice to cooks who buy unfamiliar ingredients.
