The 4-Hour Chef isn't just a cookbook. It's a choose-your-own-adventure guide to the world of rapid learning.
• New York Times bestselling author (and lifelong non-cook) Tim Ferriss takes you from Manhattan to Okinawa, and from Silicon Valley to Calcutta, unearthing the secrets of the world's fastest learners and greatest chefs. Ferriss uses cooking to explain "meta-learning," a step-by-step process that can be used to master anything, whether searing steak or shooting 3-pointers in basketball. That is the real "recipe" of The 4-Hour Chef.
• You'll train inside the kitchen for everything outside the kitchen. Featuring tips and tricks from chess prodigies, world-renowned chefs, pro athletes, master sommeliers, super models, and everyone in between, this "cookbook for people who don't buy cookbooks" is a guide to mastering cooking and life.
• The 4-Hour Chef is a five-stop journey through the art and science of learning:
– 1. META-LEARNING. Before you learn to cook, you must learn to learn. META charts the path to doubling your learning potential.
– 2. THE DOMESTIC. DOM is where you learn the building blocks of cooking. These are the ABCs (techniques) that can take you from Dr, Seuss to Shakespeare.
– 3. THE WILD. Becoming a master student requires self-sufficiency in all things. WILD teaches you to hunt, forage, and survive.
– 4. THE SCIENTIST. SCI is the mad scientist and modernist painter wrapped into one. This is where you rediscover whimsy and wonder.
– 5. THE PROFESSIONAL. Swaraj, a term usually associated with Mahatma Gandhi, can be translated as "self-rule." In PRO, we'll look at how the best in the world become the best in the world, and how you can chart your own path far beyond this book.

"It's the first real cooking book that I've read. Until then, I had only used recipe books to cook.
• But with the 4-Hour Chef, I finally learned about taste, smell and how to use basic ingredient to change the flavour. I've learned about combination and the typical ingredient used for each type of cuisine, by country.
• I also now have a bulletproof recipe for the perfect steak. Thank you Tim!
• But, the reason I bought the book in the first place is not for cooking, it's to get Tim's method for accelerated learning. It's brilliant and highly valuable. I now use it overtime I want to learn something new. It might not be obvious that it's in there if you don't know about it, but this is something you should not miss!
• The 4-Hour Chef is a brilliant book, one that I still refer to for cooking. Whether you want to finally understand cooking or want to understand who you can learn anything much faster or if you want both, give it a go, you won't regret it."
