I can recommend The Flavor Thesaurus. It's similar in concept and an easy read. Each of the 1000+ entries is a paragraph or so and blends technical information with personal experience. It's more for reading then serious reference though.

You should check out this book for flavour pairings. Some great ones there. Personally mine is a whole peeled pineapple with a obscene amount of cayenne pepper dusted on to it and then roasted in an oven for a couple of hours and served with a coconut creme frais

The Flavour Thesaurus by Niki Segnit. It's full of food pairings with snippets of culinary history, personal anecdotes and the occasional recipe.

I don't know that book, but I've been happy with this that sounds quite similar (although this is more of a dictionary of interesting and historical food pairing):
