30 DAYS OPEN PURCHASEHeston Blumenthal takes seven British classics, dismantles them into their component parts and puts them back together using measuring instruments and a stubbornness bordering on the unhealthy (that's a kind way of putting it, obviously it's completely insane). Fish and chips, pizza and fried chicken are treated with the kind of apparatus normally reserved for pharmaceutical development. The effort is in blatant disproportion to the goal, and that's the entire point of the book. It came out right in the middle of the period when he was at his most influential, which shows in the confidence.
