This engaging guide traces the history, cultivation, and culture of
coffee, as well as the major factors influencing the industry
today. Robert Thurston provides a readable, concise overview of
coffee from the time the seeds of the coffee fruit are planted to
the latest ideas in roasting and making beverages. He considers
cultivation and its challenges, especially climate change; new
research on hybridization; the history of coffee and cultural
change surrounding it around the world; devices, new and old, for
making coffee drinks; the issue of organic versus conventional
agriculture; and the health benefits of the brew. The first book
that coffee lovers naturally will turn to, it will also appeal to
anyone interested in globalization, climate change, and social
justice.
