Riassunto

This paperbound edition makes available in print once again a work first published in 1990 (Simon and Schuster). Maybe it's true that physicists are among the happiest professionals. Zee who is affiliated with the Institute for Theoretical Physics at the U. of California, Santa Barabara, and has written engaging books on physics for non-scientists cheerfully turns his attention to some other passions. Gently and imaginatively, he entices readers to examine Chinese characters connected with food. This delightful avenue leads readers to enriched visits to Chinese restaurants as well as enhanced appreciation of Chinese culture. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
