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...

This book reminds me again that history barely changes. We will ultimately go back to our source. The book combs through the history of civilization, trading, globalization and former empires. Hence, it might not be much informative but at least clear.
