Nice, but this book is trying too much. Yes, India is in Asia, but while you might force a Chinese-Japanese cook book, adding Indian cuisine and some other countries too is getting too much. Yes, they all use rice in their cooking, but I haven't seen a book mixing Russian, French and Canadian cuisine just because they use bread and potatoes.
