The Aphrodisiac Encyclopaedia by Mark Douglas Hill

Along with mouth-wateringly tempting recipes, each entry is packed with diverse and diverting fact - historical, literary, biological and psychological - and the aphrodisiac and amorous qualities of each ingredient examined and appraised.
"A book of sexy cooking" -- Jake Wallis Simons * The Times *
"Take Nigella Lawson, add alcohol, and multiply it by masochism, and you have this here cookbook" * Loaded *
Mark Douglas Hill is an epicurean, glutton, sybarite, sensualist and sometime slut - a randy and outspoken bon viveur. This flamboyant, larger than life character is the literary comic creation and alter ego of Mark Hill. Educated at Winchester College, Edinburgh University and Leiths School of Food & Wine. The owner and executive chef of The Well Dressed Salad Company (until its sale in 2007). He now owns UANDI, a gourmet boutique hotel in the Andaman Islands and continues to work as a food consultant for a number of leading restaurant chains and food companies. The Aphrodisiac Encyclopaedia is his first book.
