About this audiobook
From hunting and gathering to factory farming—how did food shape human civilization? The history of food is deeply intertwined with agriculture, trade, and technological advancements. Early humans relied on foraging before the agricultural revolution allowed for settled societies. Ancient civilizations like Egypt, Mesopotamia, and China developed farming techniques that laid the foundation for modern agriculture. The Columbian Exchange introduced new crops and spices across continents, revolutionizing diets worldwide. Today, food production faces challenges such as climate change, genetic engineering, and sustainable farming. This book explores how food has shaped economies, cultures, and daily life. If you’re fascinated by the history behind what we eat, this book is for you.
