Introduction
Switzerland may be neutral but it is certainly
not flavourless. The fusion of German, French
and Italian ingredients has formed a robust
national culture, and the country's Alpine
landscapes have enough zing to reinvigorate
the most jaded traveller. Goethe summed
up Switzerland succinctly as a combination
of 'the colossal and the well-ordered'.
The untamed majesty of the Alps and the
tidy, just-so precision of Swiss towns prevent
Switzerland from ever being as one-dimensional
as some pundits like to try and make it.
