The bestselling author of "A History of the World in 6 Glasses
"charts the enlightening history of humanity through the foods we
eat.
More than simply sustenance, food historically has been a kind
of technology, changing the course of human progress by helping to
build empires, promote industrialization, and decide the outcomes
of wars. Tom Standage draws on archaeology, anthropology, and
economics to reveal how food has helped shape and transform
societies around the world, from the emergence of farming in China
by 7500 b.c. to the use of sugar cane and corn to make ethanol
today. "An Edible History of Humanity "is a fully satisfying
account of human history.
