A recent book review in the June 30, 2008 issue of C & E News looked at one of my favorite foods – Chocolate.  The article reviews the second edition of Stephen P. Beckett’s book The Science of Chocolate.  Just imagine a whole book devoted to the science of chocolate.

This past summer I was the “mad scientist” for my wife’s vacation bible school where the theme was Rain Forest Adventure and one of the things that I talked about were foods that were found in the Amazon Rain Forest including chocolate.  As I prepared  for my “show and tell”  I realized just how little I knew about the production of chocolate.  Maybe reading his book will do the trick.

Will someone please tell my wife to add this book to my Christmas list.  ISBN: 978-0-85404-970-7.

Thanks,
