Description

Who thinks of historical events in terms of plants? For example, the emergence of empires, migrations or famines? Does the potato come to mind when we think of industrialisation? After reading this book, perhaps it does! Biological facts are not neglected either, from the cocoa bean which requires a special mosquito for pollination, to the history of the banana, which once had seeds and now only makes clones. Through selection and breeding, we have changed certain plants over the centuries, but they have also changed us - as humanity and as a society.

An excursion for those thirsty for knowledge into the world of plants that taste good to us every day.
