The quality of the book should be no surprise, given the track record of the principle author, Beth Hensperger. In fact, not only is it better than Finlayson's book, it is a lot better than Anderson's book on the food processor. But, like Jean Anderson's book, `Process This' on food processor cookery, this is a first rate addition to any good cookbook library. Like blender recipes and toaster oven recipes and grill pan recipes and pressure cooker recipes, you usually find books which are little more than one step removed from a manufacturer's booklet, published by the likes of Sunset Press or other speciality publisher, not by the Harvard Commons Press. This is a cookery subject on which you do not expect to find a serious treatment by a major cookbook author. It is easily twice the size of my former slow cooker favorite, Judith Finlayson's `The 150 best Slow Cooker recipes' and easily more than twice as good, although this former favorite does have some virtues not in the current subject, such as both English and metric units of measure for all ingredients.

`Not Your Mother's Slow Cooker Cookbook' by expert bread cookbook author Beth Hensperger and Julie Kaufmann is hands down the very best book on its subject you are likely to find.
