Summary

A journey through time and space to discover the fabulous history of vegetables, from their domestication to the present day. This book individually scrutinizes the epic history of a wide range of vegetables describing their cultural and symbolic dimensions, common uses (in medicine and cooking) and their positive impact on nutrition and health. Illustrations of vegetables pay homage to vegetables from another space and time and those that have come to us from the New World.
