Or is it? John Readers narrative on the role of the potato in world history suggests we may be underestimating this remarkable tuber. From domestication in Peru 8,000 years ago to its status today as the worlds fourth largest food crop, the potato has played a starringor at least supportingrole in many chapters of human history. In this witty and engaging book, Reader opens our eyes to the power of the potato.Whether embraced as the solution to hunger or wielded as a weapon of exploitation, blamed for famine and death or recognized for spurring progress, the potato has often changed the course of human events. Reader focuses on sixteenth-century South America, where the indigenous potato enabled Spanish conquerors to feed thousands of conscripted native people; eighteenth-century Europe, where the nutrition-packed potato brought about a population explosion; and todays global world, where the potato is an essential food source but also the worlds most chemically-dependent crop. Where potatoes have been adopted as a staple food, social change has always followed. It may be just a humble vegetable, John Reader shows, yet the history of the potato has been anything but dull.PotatoesPotatoesHistoryFood cropsPotatoes.PotatoesHistory.Food crops.63515.50bclReader John74428Reader John74428MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910961286103321Potato4382761UNINA02935nam 22005771 450 991100842170332120241226110214.097815443564021544356404978154435639615443563909781544356372154435637497815443563891544356382(CKB)4100000009589893(MiAaPQ)EBC5945460(OCoLC)1124609063(CaToSAGE)SAGE000009220265944(EXLCZ)99410000000958989320200219e20192019 fy| 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierThe emotionally connected classroom wellness and the learning experience /Bill AdairThousand Oaks :Corwin A SAGE Company,2019.1 online resource (200 pages) illustrations9781544356365 1544356366 Includes bibliographical references (pages 191-294) and index.Engineer healthy interactions and repair dysregulation - Suicide rates, ADHD diagnoses, gaming addiction, and adolescent depression are increasing exponentially.
