Mark Kurlansky is the author of Cod: A Biography of the Fish that Changed the World, The Basque History of the World and the short story collection The White Man in the Tree. He lives in New York City with his wife and daughter.
Homer called it a divine substance. Plato described it as especially dear to the gods. As Mark Kurlansky so brilliantly relates here, salt has shaped civilization from the beginning, and its story is a glittering often surprising part of the history of mankind. So valuable that it has often served as currency and still does in places today, salt inspired the earliest trade routes across unknown oceans and the remotest deserts. Wars have been fought over salt, and while salt taxes secured empires across Europe and Asia, they have also inspired revolution - Gandhi's salt march in 1930 began the overthrow of British rule in India. From the rural Sichuan province where the last home-made soya sauce is made to the Cheshire brine springs that supplied salt around the globe, Mark Kurlansky has produced a kaleidoscope of world history, a multilayered masterpiece that blends political, commercial, scientific, religious and culinary records into a rich and memorable tale.

评分很难想象,在日常生活中再寻常不过的一种调味料竟然能成为一本书的绝对主角,直到有一天,在马克·科尔兰斯的笔下,这种白色颗粒才焕发出无可比拟的生命力,进而成为万众瞩目的焦点。 众所周知,盐,这一与我们的生活结下不解之缘的食品,总是静静躺在厨房中某个不起眼...
评分甘地腾志所以成为国父,盐使然.袁枚所以有《随园食单》盐使然.烹饪而来的佳肴所以美味盐使然...碘所以风行全国,政使然. 这本书的缺欠是译者不懂盐,所以在译者序言里,顾左右而言它.遗憾. 但是,做为活体生物的我们,盐不可不察也^_^用盐亦有道也.... 世界上有N多的专题史,这...
