{"product_id":"an-edible-history-of-humanity-1","title":"An Edible History of Humanity","description":"The bestselling author of A History of the World in 6 Glasses charts the enlightening history of humanity through the foods we eat.\n\nMore 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.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0802719910\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0802719910.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Standage, Tom\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This copy has clearly been enjoyed—expect noticeable shelf wear and some minor creases to the cover.
