Coffee Culture: Local experiences, Global Connections explores
coffee as (1) a major commodity that shapes the lives of millions
of people; (2) a product with a dramatic history; (3) a beverage
with multiple meanings and uses (energizer, comfort food,
addiction, flavouring, and confection); (4) an inspiration for
humor and cultural critique; (5) a crop that can help protect
biodiversity yet also threaten the environment; (6) a health risk
and a health food; and (7) a focus of alternative trade efforts.
This book presents coffee as a commodity that ties the world
together, from the coffee producers and pickers who tend the
plantations in tropical nations, to the middlemen and processors,
to the consumers who drink coffee without ever having to think
about how the drink reached their hands.
