Borrow Before Buying
I have been doing a study on menu development, design, costing, and many other aspects of menus and marketing. This may be a good text if you have a lecture to go along with it but standing library loan. I would not recommend buying it unseen.
Other books cost less and provide more detailed and very specific information needed by someone preparing a menu.
