The history of humankind is intimately tied to the history of
agriculture: powerful societies rose, persisted and waned in
parallel with their food supply systems. Describing what crops were
grown, the constraints on their production and the foods that were
obtained, this book traces the impact of cropping and food
preparation in ten societies that were among the most powerful and
influential in history, detailing how technology varied and
developed as it related directly to agriculture and food
production. The book covers the background of agricultural
development, early agricultural societies, and the advancement of
technology from the ancient Greeks and Romans to the present. It
finishes by addressing the implications for the future of
agriculture and food supply as grain production moves towards
biofuels. A compelling text for all those interested in the history
of society and civilisations, global agriculture, and what it means
for the future, this text is also an essential reference for
students of agriculture, food technology, history and anthropology.
Twenty per cent of the UK population - 12 million people - suffer
IBS-related symptoms, but they may be unaware that the simple
elimination of starch from their diet can bring dramatic relief
from pain and discomfort. In this revised edition, Carol Sinclair,
a sufferer who has successfully overcome IBS and arthritic pain,
brings you a revolutionary programme for a pain-free future. This
practical guide will help millions to reduce their arthritic
symptoms, whose pain to date has been relieved only by regular
medication, with sometimes dangerous side effects. The diet shows
that a gradual reduction of starch in one's diet can dramatically
reduce pain in days, to a point where drug usage is reduced and, in
some cases, eliminated completely. Details of the discovery - along
with case histories and a practical guide - make Carol Sinclair's
book a first in the world. The IBS Low-Starch Diet also contains
over 200 delicious starch- and gluten-free recipes, along with a
comprehensive guide to eating out.
