Tokyo is rightfully known around the world as one of the most exciting places to eat on the planet.

Also included are dishes that Tokyoites love to eat with origins from abroad, like Japanese interpretations of Korean barbecue, Italian pizza and pasta, American burgers and more. Tim tackles his food tour of Tokyo from the ground up, with chapters broken down into: LOWER GROUND FLOOR: Tokyo on the Go (Department Store Basements, Subway Stations, and Convenience Stores); FIRST FLOOR: Tokyo Local (food traditional to Tokyo); SECOND FLOOR: Tokyo National (food traditional to Japan); THIRD FLOOR: Tokyo Global (Japanese food with an international twist) FOURTH FLOOR: Tokyo at Home (Japanese home cooking); and, FIFTH FLOOR: Tokyo Modern (experimental Japanese food found in high-end hotel bars).With Tim's easy-to-follow recipes, this is make-at-home Japanese food, authentic yet achievable for the home chef – without cutting corners.

Agnes Bernauer was born in Berlin in 1923, daughter of a renowned Jewish-Hungarian theater impresario. She made her main contribution to the war effort in the guise of a German radio announcer, Vicky, the Allied answer to Tokyo Rose. Agnes bartered clothes for hotel bills, performed impromptu cabaret in Barcelona, summered in Cannes and received the affections of, among others, Claus von Bülow and King Farouk. In 1956 she shocked audiences as Salome - the first ""non-stationary nude"" in London theater. While auditioning for Footlights she devised the concept for her original satirical cabaret, based on the work of Brecht and Weil, that became the first solo show at Peter Cook's Establishment in Soho.

When Emil and Anna Bach approached Frank Lloyd Wright to design and build their Chicago home in 1915, he quoted a cost of $10,000, or $250,000 in modern purchasing power. Wright is known for his grand, international designs like the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo and the Guggenheim in New York. But he also designed beautiful and carefully practical small family homes like the Bach's "little dream house." Frank Lloyd Wright's $10,000 Home is a design-focused portrait of that iconic building, featuring rare building illustrations, beautiful maps, intimate family stories, and extensive photographs that offer a distinctive look at the house's history, the families that lived there, and the thoughtful process of its protection and restoration.

Contrasting wedding ceremonies-a lavish Imperial Hotel Shinto affair for his side, a modest Jewish wedding for hers-set the stage for a fascinating union between two spiritual seekers, who raise their children in Tokyo with Jewish and Japanese roots.Wagamama means "selfish" in Japanese, but not in the sense of hoarding cookies. Having an opinion that goes against tradition can be viewed in Japan as selfish. With the author coming from a line of feisty, opinionated, secular Ashkenazi Jewish women, friction was inevitable-despite the fact that she married into a remarkably peace loving family, who respected her need to connect to her Jewish faith, after trying to follow their Buddhist, Shinto, and Taoist traditions. It was not easy.Grunberg-Wakabayashi shares the inner process of returning home, with the help of two Lubavitcher families, who set up communities in Tokyo. She finds at these Chabad Houses what she needs to feel fulfilled and content, despite marital challenges. This memoir is full of scintillating conversations, memorable characters, art and synchronicity, sad endings, and joyful beginnings.

This exciting illustrated tour takes you step-by-step behind the scenes of the most incredible implosions in the world from standing skyscrapers to-kaboom!-a pile of rubble. A hotel in Atlantic city, a bridge in France, an office in Tokyo, a factory in Pittsburgh, a casino in Las Vegas-these incredible demolition projects and more are illustrated with huge, full-color photographs satisfying our fascination with destruction through second-by-second views of each structure as it takes its final, devastating plunge back to earth. The author, with the help of the Loizeaux family of Controlled Demolition, Inc., relates stories and describes techniques for imploding structures-from bridges to skyscrapers-in this most arresting form of demolition where strategically placed charges fired with precision timing can make a huge building collapse onto itself without disturbing the surrounding buildings. Detailed blueprints attest to the careful months of planning, and discussions with expert contractors and engineers reveal the secrets, strategies, sheer power and excitement of one of the world's most dangerous trades. Dramatic picture sequences give second-by-second displays of famous and elaborate demolition projects including the implosion of Seattle's Kingdome, the destruction of missile platforms in Bulgaria, the final take-down of buildings decimated by earthquakes in Mexico City, and takes us onto the sets of movies like Lethal Weapon and Mars Attacks! for amazing implosions laced with spectacular pyrotechnics.
