The Science of Cooking, by food scientist Dr Stuart Farrimond, explains the chemistry behind kitchen techniques, while The Science of Nutrition, by nutritionist Rhiannon Lambert, unpacks what happens inside your body when you eat. Together they form a practical, evidence-based reference for cooking confidently and eating with understanding, free from fad diet claims.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Books:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Science of Cooking answers the questions home cooks ask most: why does meat turn tough, how do you get a perfect sear, why do eggs curdle, and how does heat change the structure of vegetables, grains and dairy? Dr Farrimond organises the book by ingredient and technique, pairing explanations with step-by-step visuals so food science becomes a useful kitchen skill, consulted the way you would a recipe book.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Science of Nutrition takes the same evidence-first approach to diet and health. Rhiannon Lambert, a leading UK registered nutritionist, examines popular eating patterns such as plant-based diets, low-carb approaches and intermittent fasting, explaining what current research actually says about each. The book covers macronutrients, the gut microbiome, supplements, and how needs shift across life stages, translating clinical research into practical guidance rather than restrictive rules. Both titles use DK's signature infographic style, with clear diagrams making dense science easy to absorb. Together they bridge the gap between what you put in the pan and what happens once you eat it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWritten by a recognised food scientist and a registered nutritionist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovers cooking technique and dietary science in one complementary set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClear, DK-style infographics make complex science easy to understand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEvidence-based content, free from fad-diet claims\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDurable hardback format, ideal for regular kitchen reference\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA thoughtful gift for food lovers, cooks and health-conscious readers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Authors:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDr Stuart Farrimond is a science and medical writer, broadcaster and founder of food-science website Guru Magazine, known for translating culinary chemistry into accessible guidance for home cooks.
