I was gifted Charmaine Solomon's The Complete Asian Cookbook a few years ago, and I love it.

She gives you tons of recipes, but she also tells you what you might need in your cupboards. I would heartily recommend the book.

Edit: She does encompass most of Asia, so she is more inclusive than just "Chinese" cooking. Her chapters are listed by Asian country, so whether you feel like cooking an authentic Indian meal, or a Vietnamese desert, it is easy to find what you are looking for.

I ended up getting Gran Cocina Latina. So far seems like exactly what I was looking for - a little bit from each region. The author seems to have quite a bit of experience with the various areas (or at least to my inexperienced eye). My only complaint is that she calls for very specific ingredients that are not readily available where I currently live, and doesn't often mention more accessible substitutes.

The one I have for Asia is The Complete Asian Cookbook, which doesn't address 'Asian' cooking as a whole, but has a chapter for each country, each with an intro about the style and ingredients of the area.
