Gordon Ramsay is arguably the most highly acclaimed chef and restaurateur in the UK and the only London chef to have been awarded a 3-star Michelin rating.  He is the star of the hit UK reality show Hell’s Kitchen (10 million viewers) and the upcoming American version of the show by the same name, which will air on Fox TV nationwide for 10 weeks beginning on May 30, 2005.  UK sales of his most recent cookbook skyrocketed to 170,000 copies once his show became a hit.  Much of the success of the show can be attributed to the author's volatile temper and brutally-straightforward honesty.  Ramsay is the author of ten other cookbooks, including In the Heat of the Kitchen, to be published by Wiley in April 2005.
