📝 Description: The World of Sugar: How the Sweet Stuff Transformed Our Politics, Health, and Environment Over 2,000 Years
Traversing 2,500 years of global history, Ulbe Bosma shows how sugar, once a luxury reserved for Eastern emperors, stoked a mania in the West, transforming diets and ecosystems, destroying and creating cultures, and shaping the history of bondage and freedom. A major source of calories only since 1900, sugar has suddenly revolutionized our world.
