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?

评分#读这种书就是为了搜集fun facts,但我睡着了太多次,也没有收集到多少。在半梦半醒的状态,我发现读书的这位小哥有点轻微的口吃
A good book with suffient details, however, i feel the writer could do better job to make it smoother
评分啤酒、葡萄酒、烈酒、咖啡、茶、可乐,顺着这个时间轴讲述它们各自的历史。原来我的印象中茶是最早的饮品其次是咖啡、低度酒。原来,啤酒诞生时间那么早,茶居然不是中国自古以来的饮品,真是颠覆以往的认知。烈酒可乐倒是一直知道是近代的产物,但可乐居然是药剂的产物,真是...
评分刚读完此书,心情澎湃极了,实在是一本不可多得的好书!从六种饮品的起源和发展中读历史,观世界,以饮品的的角度去诠释相关时期的历史甚至是哲学、政治和科技真是读起来趣味十足,相当过瘾。 作者写作此书的诚意也着实令我佩服不已,这是需要花多少时间和心血来考证如此详实的...
评分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...
评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(...
