With Special Contributions by Chef Fergus Henderson, Food Historian Dr. Annie Gray, and the Coordinator of Transcribe Bentham, Dr. Tim Causer

A Step inside the strange and brilliant mind of 18th century British philosopher and social reformer, Jeremy Bentham, now regarded as the founder of modern utilitarianism.

Bentham's authentic Georgian recipes, developed for use in a never-realised Panopticon prison, with a foreword by Fergus Henderson, celebrated chef and founder of St John Restaurant in London, and commentary by resident Kitchen Cabinet food historian, Dr. Annie Gray.

Images, recipes, and notes from Bentham's Panopticon manuscripts - a selection of documents that detail the philosopher's plans for the perfect prison. This original content, transcribed and archived by the Transcribe Bentham Project, is introduced by Transcribe Bentham coordinator, Dr. Tim Causer.

Recipes to be attempted at your own risk - 'Success in cooking any of Bentham's recipes depends on your kitchen, your knowledge, your balls and your dedication.
