Abstract

This work explores the extent to which the quality of a cookbook can be enhanced to engage more audiences than its online alternatives, with emphases on the design of cookbooks. Firstly, I take a close look at how the design of cookbooks has evolved overtime by studying the very origin of cookbooks up to the final form. Next, I determine and study the alternatives which pose a threat to cookbooks at present or might pose a threat in the near future. Finally, I demonstrate how the design of cookbooks can be enhanced based on the kind by using the proper design methods along with implying new technologies in order to generate a more engaging cookbook. This research will inform and serve as a theoretical foundation for my practical project and help me in designing a more engaging cookbook.
