Jody gave this book to me. I have to say, this book is the most boring book I ever read so far. It's too boring to focus reading. It takes me 3 month to finish only 200 pages? My favorite part is potato. Boy! this writer is so good at dragging nothing out of something.

苹果那篇写得太沉闷了,差点儿没看下去。

讲了四种植物:苹果郁金香大麻和土豆,可惜内容和书名不是很相符。土豆一章很震撼,有关GMO。

每种植物历史和文化背景的部分比较有趣,有第一手资料,涉及科学的部分就主要是摘抄和听说了,还是what a plant knows比较可信。

读完第一章实在受不了了,作者思维很跳跃而散文般的文风实在是太难follow,但是Conclusion很惊艳,the agency of botany, coevolutionary relation, BIODIVERSITY

12月一口气读了四五本michael的书,直到这本终于有点倦怠读不下去了。读“苹果”一章,我连着喝了几杯三四年没有碰过的cider,依旧难喝哈哈。读完“土豆”,我想着我可以和麦当劳彻底永生再见了

从植物的视角分析历史脉络,思想风潮和植物本身。灵动,丰富,很有启发,甚至讽刺。没看最后一章土豆。

I just can't emphasize enough how important and wonderful this book is. For anyone who eats food (which is pretty much everyone), this is a must read.

本来就喜欢Michael Pollan的文笔,这本应该是我读过的他的最好的。行文非常流畅,theory, evidence, anecdote, observation无缝衔接,看似无聊的话题被他讲的非常吸引人。应该会买实体书。

虽然有点话痨(作家通病嘛?),但是还是蛮有趣的。虽然四章节各有千秋,但最后一部分真的是精华啊~果然克服了作者的唠叨病才能坚持见到压轴大戏!

感覺是Michael Pollan裡比較讓我失望的一本,鬱金香部分挺無聊的,大麻部分我是帶著bias聽過去的。土豆部分比較有意思但聽到Monsanto大概就知道後面是什麼走向了(果然這公司幾十年如一日的差口碑啊)

感觉阅读纸质的书一定收获更多。作者的写作一如既往的清晰。

从人类与植物关系的角度,讨论了很多有意思的议题,比如进化,欲望,意识,美,多元,垄断等等,多层次分析了基因编辑的利弊。
