All you wanted to know about the origins of agriculture,

This review is from: The Agricultural Revolution in Prehistory: Why did Foragers become Farmers? (Hardcover)
This is a thorough, well-researched and clearly argued book about the origins of agriculture. The author has collected exhaustive references about agriculture all over the world. He presents a nuanced argument for the beginnings of agriculture that includes the social dynamics for why people elected to leave their foraging way of life.
I am a professional archaeologist, but I believe that a careful non-specialist reader would find this book quite informative. I am also happy to see it is now available in paperback and as a Kindle book. I managed to get a hold of it half price because we were at a conference where sometimes you can obtain the display copies cheaper. Even if you paid full price for it, the book is worth every penny. |
