An Edible History of Humanity

An Edible History of Humanity An Edible History of Humanity by Tom Standage


My review


rating: 3 of 5 stars
This is a great concept for a book: how the search for and production of food has influenced the world's history. Tom Standage does a thorough job of tracing the ways in which humans have been shaped by what we eat. I'll admit, I wasn't gripped by his writing style, but the material was interesting enough for me to wade through it.
