Book of the Week: An Edible History of Humanity by Tom Standage

Book Quote

"Food is essential to life. Food is about agriculture, about ecology, about man's relationship with nature, about the climate, about nation-building, cultural struggles, friends and enemies, alliances, wars, religion. It is about memory and tradition and, at times, even about sex. And every society eats a different kind of food."

~ Tom Standage, An Edible History of Humanity, 2010
