A fascinating persuasive history of how sugar has shaped the world, from European colonies to our modern diets. In this eye-opening study, Sidney Mintz shows how Europeans and Americans transformed sugar from a rare foreign luxury to a commonplace necessity of modern life, and how it changed the history of capitalism and industry. He discusses the production and consumption of sugar, and reveals how closely interwoven are sugar's origins as a "slave" crop grown in Europe's tropical colonies with is use first as an extravagant luxury for the aristocracy, then as a staple of the diet of the new industrial proletariat. Finally, he considers how sugar has altered work patterns, eating habits, and our diet in modern times.

评分2018 Anthropology.
评分a marvelous account of the material life and the spirit behind it.eventually some truth does lie in the surface of things itself.every move is for some certain reason yet it's tricky who justify the reason in what way.
评分从historiography的角度来说是本好书，集好几家方法于一体，随处可见marx, braudel。就是读起来琐碎：因为脑洞开得大、联系建得远，他得引入大篇幅解释这些connection，这一部分挺枯燥的。
