Summary: proffessional book for bakers 2009-01-06
Comment: This is a great book.
It takes 185 pages before you get to the first recipe (formula), and the quantities are usually for 4-5 loafs at a time, but this is a great book for bakers, and baking enthusiasts.
It is set up as a university text book, and teaches you how to be a baker.

Summary: O melhor livro sobre o assunto (best book about the subject) 2008-12-06
Comment: Sou panificador há 18 anos e um apaixonado por essa arte. De todos os livros que já adquiri, este é o único que cumpre o que promete (a professional aproach), outros livros são apenas para quem quer brincar de fazer pão. Completo, claro, técnico, profissional. Enfim, possui exatamente o que procurava num livro como esse. Já tinha conhecido o material do SFBI, mas o livro realmente me surpreendeu. Recomendo a qualquer um que já tem conhecimento sobre panificação e pretende se aprofundar em suas técnicas.

Summary: Very good but you only need one of these kind of books 2008-08-01
Comment: This is a great book but as I have several other "text" type books it is not necessary. If I had none of the others I would have chosen this one.
