Spices

[Cheese Mechanic]

Can anyone recommend a good book/reference on spices?

I'm basically looking for something that outlines the spices, and relates properties, potential uses , etc.

I'm assuming Sophie Grigson's book will be quite good, but as said, what can you recommend?

Not just about spices, but lots of flavours and how they work:
