520    "'The Art of Fermentation' is the most comprehensive guide
       to do-it-yourself home fermentation ever published. Sandor
       Katz presents the concepts and processes behind 
       fermentation in ways that are simple enough to guide a 
       reader through their first experience making sauerkraut or
       yogurt, and in-depth enough to provide greater 
       understanding and insight for experienced practitioners. 
       While Katz expertly contextualizes fermentation in terms 
       of biological and cultural evolution, health and nutrition,
       and even economics, this is primarily a compendium of 
       practical information--how the processes work; parameters 
       for safety; techniques for effective preservation; 
       troubleshooting; and more. With full-color illustrations 
       and extended resources, this book provides essential 
       wisdom for cooks, homesteaders, farmers, gleaners, 
       foragers, and food lovers of any kind who want to develop 
       a deeper understanding and appreciation for arguably the 
       oldest form of food preservation, and part of the roots of
       culture itself. Readers will find detailed information on 
       fermenting vegetables; sugars into alcohol (meads, wines, 
       and ciders); sour tonic beverages; milk; grains and 
       starchy tubers; beers (and other grain-based alcoholic 
       beverages); beans; seeds; nuts; fish; meat; and eggs, as 
       well as growing mold cultures, using fermentation in 
       agriculture, art, and energy production, and 
       considerations for commercial enterprises. Sandor Katz has
       introduced what will undoubtedly remain a classic in food 
       literature, and is the first--and only--of its kind"--
