The Naked Chef «In an effort to create scrumptious restaurant recipes in a limited kitchen, I discovered that I was simplifying those recipes to what was absolutely necessary. Next, I adjusted them according to what was in the pantry, the cellar, the freezer or the garden. Following this principle, I created a wide variety of simple yet tasty and inspired recipes. At the same time, I tried to avoid complicated, timeconsuming processes that did not have a satisfying outcome. This book’s goal is to inspire you to step in the kitchen and to ignite your passion to cook with enthusiasm and self-confidence».

The Rule of Four If Fitzgerald, Eco and Brown collaborated to write a book, the result would be «The Rule of Four». It is a brilliant work, a book that should not be overlooked. A mysterious manuscript in code, a murder in the Thivi dormitory, and the secrets of a Renaissance prince lead to a labyrinth of betrayal, paranoia, and ingenuity, through the pages of «The Rule of Four». Ian Cadwell and Dustin Thomason make their writing debut composing a breathtaking novel, using as part of the plot a real document of the 15th century, written by Francesco Colonna. √È ıÏÈÌ̤Ó˜ Ô˘Ù¿Ó˜ Ù˘ ˙ˆ‹˜ ÌÔ˘ (EΉfiÛÂȘ §È‚¿ÓË) ŒÓ·˜ ËÏÈÎȈ̤ÓÔ˜ ‰ËÌÔÛÈÔÁÚ¿ÊÔ˜ ·ÔÊ·Û›˙ÂÈ Ó· ÁÈÔÚÙ¿ÛÂÈ Ù· ÂÓÂÓËÎÔÛÙ¿ ÁÂÓ¤ıÏÈ¿ ÙÔ˘ Ì ÌÂÁ·ÏÂÈÒ‰Ë ÙÚfiÔ, ‰›ÓÔÓÙ·˜ ÛÙÔÓ Â·˘Ùfi ÙÔ˘ ¤Ó· ‰ÒÚÔ Ô˘ ı· ÙÔÓ Î¿ÓÂÈ Ó· ·ÈÛı·Óı› fiÙÈ Â›Ó·È ·ÎfiÌ· ˙ˆÓÙ·Ófi˜, Ì›· Ó·ڋ ·Úı¤Ó·.
