If you've always used a wok, you must have this book. This book is not just about the care and feeding of the wok as a useful kitchen pan, but 'the wok as a way of life, ' a bridge between cultures for a Chinese American in search of history and destiny.

Anderson, author of The Food of China The Breath of a Wok is the best and most thorough book on the wok so far.

It reminded me of wonderful days in the now-long-lost world of Hong Kong.Amy Tan, author of The Opposite of Fate: A Book of Musings and The Joy Luck Club Grace Young takes us into the heart of wok cooking -- from the master cooks of China to the culinary luminaries of the United States.
