Eugene N. Anderson examines the complex intersection of agricultural history, ecology, and social practice in China. By analyzing how the nation sustains a massive population on limited arable land, the author provides a comprehensive study of the cultural, economic, and environmental factors that shaped the development of one of the world's most sophisticated culinary traditions.
