Techniques from the Ferrandi School of Culinary Arts

Author FERRANDI Paris


The ultimate reference on hearty French charcuterie boards and other savory spreads from FERRANDI Paris.

This complete course on charcuterie, which comprises cooked terrines, pâtés, and savory pies, from the world-renowned culinary school FERRANDI Paris includes seventy French charcuterie recipes with step-by-step instructions for preparing doughs, sausages, and a variety of meat and meatless spreads. Recipes are organized by category—pâtés, pies, and tarts; terrines and pressed meats; rillettes and pulled meats and fish; stuffed dishes; and cooked charcuterie.

Written by the school’s experienced teaching team of master chefs and adapted for the home cook, this cookbook explains the fundamentals of French charcuterie recipes, including condiments to accompany them (chutney, mustard, pickled vegetables), the importance of quality ingredients (meat, fish, vegetables), and cooking and conservation techniques.

From country pâté to eggplant miso terrine, Scotch eggs to stuffed tomatoes, blood sausage ravioli to duck Parmentier, mushroom and potato pie to beef Rossini, chickpea and vegetable terrine to a revisited croque monsieur, the easy-to-follow recipes are graded for difficulty, allowing readers to hone skills over time. The French comfort food tradition has been elevated by the team at Ferrandi with a touch of modernity by reinterpreting certain recipes for vegetarians. This extensive reference—replete with 200 illustrations—provides everything both home chefs and experienced professionals need to master the world-class culinary school’s recipes.

This stunning volume, with a fanciful and intricate pop-up, an elaborate foldout cover, and dramatic still-life photography, evokes the artistry and theatricality of Louboutin's shoe designs.

Celebrated for his vertiginously high stilettos with their signature lacquer-red soles, Louboutin has achieved cult status with celebrities as well as fashionistas.

Louboutin's first book, this monograph highlights the extraordinary range of his couture, from his iconic and glamorous creations to his fetishistic pieces, including his collaborations with David Lynch, meant more for the bedroom than the street. New photography captures Louboutin's artistic sensibilities, while an in-depth interview reveals Louboutin's life, travels, and inspirations, presenting a very personal look at the man behind the shoes.

A work of art in itself, with a five-piece foldout binding and a pop-up, Christian Louboutin is an enticing and revelatory look at the most important luxury shoe designer of our day.
The book is divided into six chapters.

Color: A Master Class: Art History · Masterpieces · Symbolism · Techniques

Author Camille Viéville


An illustrated guide to the history and symbolism of colors, as used in artworks throughout the ages, from prehistory to the present day.

Color, which has the power to impart meaning or express emotion, has fascinated humans for millennia. This comprehensive, illustrated guide demonstrates how color—through different periods, cultures, and artistic movements—has been used in art: from the black, red, and white pigments first used in prehistoric cave paintings to the muted tones of Gabonese Punu masks replete with spiritual significance, or from Andy Warhol’s Gold Marilyn Monroe with its flashy hues borrowed from the advertising world to the signature outrenoir (beyond black) of the late Pierre Soulages.

From oil painting to optical art, this international history of color unfurls over thirty major periods in the development of color in the arts, elucidating their characteristics, key works, and exponents. The symbolism given to a particular color and how such associations have evolved over time is revealed. A gallery of sixty works that are remarkable for their extraordinary use of color includes the explosion of light emanating from Joseph Mallord William Turner’s Light and Colour (Goethe’s Theory), the fleeting moments of dawn depicted with broken brushstrokes and colorful intensity in Monet’s Impression, Sunrise, and the acidulous tones of David Hockney’s portrait My Parents. A final chapter examines the materials and techniques used to achieve chromatic effects. Complete with extensive cross-references, this accessible guide allows readers to discover more about a particular movement, theme, or technique, and offers an enlightening and polychromatic overview to the history of color in art.

The real-life Cinderella story of the very first professional woman astronomer—Caroline Herschel!

Comet Chaser is the thrilling and beautifully illustrated biography of a woman who made a lifetime of incredible contributions to science. She was the first woman to discover a comet, the first officially recognized in a scientific role, and the first to be given a Gold Medal by the Royal Astronomical Society.

In a day when girls were barely educated at all, Caroline Herschel's father taught her math and music . . . until, suddenly, he died. Her mother saw her as little more than a household servant. Caroline might have been doomed to a life of drudgery and dimness if not for her brother, who took her from Germany to England. There they started building telescopes in their free time, gradually making them larger and larger, and discovering new comets—even new planets! When the great astronomers of the day wondered how Caroline and her brother accomplished this and came to see for themselves, they found that the Herschels had made the best telescopes of their time.

From household drudge to belle of the scientific ball, Caroline Herschel won international prizes never before awarded to a woman and earned a professional wage from the king. She and her discoveries remain as stunning today as they were then. Some of her calculations are still in use! In this delightfully imaginative retelling of Caroline's career, her fairy godmother is none other than her own bright intelligence, hard work, and passion for science.

WOMEN IN Passion and persistence save the day and offer a wonderful model for girls seeking their way into science, technology, engineering, and math in this starry biography.

AN EMPOWERING, TRUE CINDERELLA What a brilliant way of telling the story of an inspirational woman in science—as a true Cinderella story! Caroline must escape a humble life of drudgery, and with the magic of real science, she makes her own fairy-tale ending.

BIOGRAPHY BOOK FOR A great addition to classrooms and libraries, with fascinating examples of hands-on engineering, mathematics, and scientific study.

Author Paul McClean and Michael Webb, Foreword by James Magni

Hollywood’s most sought-after architects are synonymous with the quintessential California lifestyle.

McClean’s second Rizzoli book explores fifteen ultra-modern residences completed over the past five years. Rigorous, elegant, and impeccably detailed, McClean’s houses are the embodiment of livable modernism and set the stage for every aspect of California living. The residences range from a remodeled classical mansion in San Francisco, to waterfront houses and serene oases that seem to float above the flats of Los Angeles, with vistas extending from mountains to the ocean.

Since its founding in 2000, McClean Design’s focus has been on creating home sanctuaries that open to the best views. From the structure to plantings, lighting, and furnishings, there’s a free flow of space, through the house and out to the horizon. The quiet authority of McClean’s houses exerts a calming influence. There’s a sense of formality and spareness in the architecture, a reduction to essentials, serving not as a constraint, but as a foil to the landscape and the relaxed character of the interior spaces; wood strip floors, cabinetry, and natural stones add warmth, as do the soft furnishings in neutral tones. The book includes floor plans and explanatory essays and notes by the architects on common themes throughout their work.
About The Author

Paul McClean is principal and founder of McClean Design, located in Orange, CA. Michael Webb is a Los Angeles-based writer who has authored thirty books on architecture and design. James Magni is principal at Magni Kalman Design.
