The Botany Of Desire By Michael Pollan - magnificent
As humans, we take ourselves fairly seriously, imaging we are in charge of the world around us. One of the pivotal moments in our history, anthropologists like to say, is when mankind learned to domesticate plants, becoming farmers instead of hunter-gatherers, thereby insuring a steady food supply and giving birth to settled communities. Higher civilization itself, you might say, began when people learned to farm. Heroic in its way, man over nature. To illustrate his point, Pollan gives us the history of four common plants that have greatly affected mankind: the apple, the tulip, marijuana, and the potato.
