Whatever your favourite tipple, when you pour yourself a drink, you have the past in a glass.
You can likely find them all in your own kitchen — beer, wine, spirits, coffee, tea, cola. Line them up on the counter, and there you have it: thousands of years of human history in six drinks.
Tom Standage opens a window onto the past in this tour of six beverages that remain essentials today. En route he makes fascinating forays into the byways of western culture: Why were ancient Egyptians buried with beer? Why was wine considered a “classier” drink than beer by the Romans? How did rum grog help the British navy defeat Napoleon? What is the relationship between coffee and revolution? And how did Coca-Cola become the number one poster-product for globalization decades before the term was even coined?

評分《翻譯辯誤》下冊翻譯此書名《人類曆史上的六大飲品》,beer,wine,spirits,coffee,tea,coca cola.it is really worth reading
評分標簽裏沒有顯示但最後幾章講的是最重要的元素--水。這本書通過六種飲品(啤酒、葡萄酒、烈酒、咖啡、茶和可樂)串聯起世界經濟、政治、生活方式等方麵的變遷,輕鬆易讀,屬於light reading。
評分很新奇的視角,但是作者的文筆也太像寫論文瞭。。。

A good book with suffient details, however, i feel the writer could do better job to make it smoother
評分从6种饮品管窥世界,历史也可以有不同视角。 佛曰:一花一世界,一木一浮生。 啤酒、葡萄酒、烈酒、茶、咖啡、以及可乐,曾用意想不到的方式塑造过人类历史。 啤酒的出现与农耕方式、更复杂的社会形态有着密不可分的关系。由于葡萄的稀少,葡萄酒诞生之初就成为显示财富的象征...
評分到超市里转,但凡是喜欢喝点什么的,能瞧在眼里,也会赏心悦目地立刻盯上的,就是那摆放得整整齐齐、琳琅满目酒类和饮料了,譬如白酒、葡萄酒、啤酒、可口可乐,当然也不能忘记了咖啡和茶。喝茶与喝咖啡,既会显得繁琐——喝茶讲究起来,那是可以称之为“茶道”的,从器...
評分I like this book as it provides a unique perspective on understanding world history. The author Tom examines trends and forces of humanity evolution through the lenses of beer, wine, spirits, coffee, tea, and cola. It's hard and even ridiculous to summarize...
評分有许多影响人类历史发展的不起眼的小东西,比如指南针、印刷术还有酿酒术。 大众饮料发展至今,在很多人看来,是跟随着历史潮流演变而成的。《六个瓶子里的历史》对伴随着人类历史发展所出现的六种流行饮料的交替兴盛做了梳理,厘清了他们各自的从出现到兴盛的脉络。 从酒(...
