Thai Food with its unique combination of sweet, sour, salty and spicy flavours has for many years now been universally popular. However, outside of Thailand, it has often been perceived to be too complicated for home cooking. This book and the recipes within, help to dispel this perception. All the recipes have been tried and tested, are clearly written and beautifully illustrated with easy to follow, step by step photographs. Each recipe is ideally suited for simple preparation in the domestic kitchen. Furthermore, the book has an excellent glossary of Thai ingredients and expounds on the medicinal advantages of many local herbs and spices. It also explains the variations between traditional dishes from the regions of the country and how many of these dishes have been adapted to cater for modern tastes and lifestyles. The book was first published in Thai and later translated into English by Nuengnuj Chaixanien.

The influence of Ancient Greece, the cradle of Western civilization, reverberates today in many spheres of modern life, from philosophy and politics to literature and art. This book explores the great wealth and cultural achievements of this civilization in colour photographs of buildings, works of art, cities and landscapes, all of which offer insights into the classical world. The text provides an historical framework to this era, from its beginnings in the Bronze Age in Minoan Crete, through the glories of 5th-century BC Athens and the invention of democracy, to the feats of Alexander the Great and the eventual Roman conquest of Greece. Further sections of the book include a detailed look at the riches of Greek art, from the prehistoric to the Hellenistic eras, and an examination of other aspects of Greek culture, including architecture, religion, theatre, sport and warfare. The book is completed by a tour taking in the cities of ancient Greece, from Athens, Olympia, Delphi and Delos, to Asia Minor and the Greek cities of southern Italy. These are brought to life by colour reconstructions and several fold-outs.
