Dear Dean and colleagues,
My co-author and I have completed a revised eBook edition of our acclaimed US publication The Psychology of Wine… truth and beauty by the glass (Praeger Publishers, 2009).
One
of the chapters reflects on the marriage of food and wine, with
insights your members may find interesting. Here’s a brief synopsis:
“The
whole is greater than the sum of its parts.” This popular truism is
rarely truer than when wine and food come together in sublime
complementarity. In this chapter, “For Better or for Worse”, we explore
the relationship between these intensely passionate and competitive
partners, reflecting on what is happening between them –
psychologically.
