Yes, I believe they are, but the processes they describe aren't, so you can publish a cookbook with recipes you collected from other cookbooks as long as you rewrite them in your own words. OTOH, you can't publish a cookbook that contains the exact same recipes (even rewritten) as one particular other cookbook, as that would violate the original author's (or editor's) compilation copyright.
