Throughout history, food has done more than simply provide sustenance; it has acted as a tool of social transformation, political organization, geopolitical competition, industrial development, military conflict and economic expansion.  And today, in the culmination of a process that has been going on for thousands of years, the foods we choose in the supermarket connect us to global debates about trade, development, and the adoption of new technologies.  An Edible History of Humanity is a journey through the uses of food that have helped to shape and transform societies around the world, from prehistory to the present.  Drawing on genetics, archaeology, anthropology, ethno-botany and economics, the story of these gastronomic revolutions is a deeply satisfying account of the whole of human history. 0aFood habitsxHistory. 0aFood preferencesxHistory. 0aAgriculturexHistory. 0aFoodxSymbolic aspects. 0aFoodxEconomic aspects.  aYBP Library ServicesbYANKn2993925  aBlackwell Book ServicebBBUSnR7782012c$26.00  aBaker and TaylorbBTCPnBK0008023533  2lcccbk  aC0bDRFGD  almm  c102320d102320  00102lcc40708CSaBJBbBJBcCSd2023-04-10l0oGT 2850 S785 2009p00000074433r2019-01-21 00:00:00t1w2019-01-21ybk
