Nick has written a book, The Art of the Restaurateur,  which, via profiles of 20 top practitioners of the art of being a restaurateur (as opposed to a chef) around the world, constitutes a guide to how to run a successful restaurant – which Nick himself did in the 1980s before ill health forced him to sell L'Escargot in London's revitalised Soho.

Visitors to JancisRobinson.com can buy copies of it at 30% off by entering the coupon code FTAR001, which will bring the price down from £24.95/$39.95 to £17.47/$27.99. Be warned that when you click on the Buy now button, you should look top right to check what's in your basket. (You might also like to compare how much Amazon will charge you for the book plus delivery, depending on your location. Purple Pager Rodrigo Mainardi points out that Amazon is a cheaper option for those in Brazil, for example.)
