Beans: A History
Albala, Ken (University of the Pacific, USA)
From the lentil to the soybean, every civilization on the planet has cultivated its own species of bean. The humble bean has always attracted attention - from Pythagoras' notion that the bean hosted a human soul to St Jerome's indictment against bean-eating in convents. This book takes readers on a journey across cuisines and cultures.
