$425 · Offered by eBay

Modernist Cuisine: The Art and Science of Cooking. Nathan Myhrvold with Chris Young and Maxime Bilet. The Cooking Lab, 2011. First edition. Volumes 1 to 5 in the original clear acrylic slipcase. Volume 1 History and Fundamentals Volume 2 Techniques and Equipment Volume 3 Animals and Plants Volume 4 Ingredients and Preparations Volume 5 Plated-Dish Recipes CONDITION Unread. This set has rarely been opened. It was bought and kept as an object, shelved and looked at rather than cooked from, and it has stayed that way. The acrylic case is immaculate, with no cracks, chips or crazing. The volumes are clean and tight with no bumped corners, no spine creasing and no marks of any kind. Listed as Like New rather than Brand New because the set has been in a private collection since publication and was not sealed. LOCAL PICKUP ONLY Brooklyn, New York. No shipping. The set is heavy and the acrylic case is the fragile part, and I would rather hand it to someone than trust it to a carrier. Bring something to carry it in. Cash or eBay payment, arranged after purchase.
