Flower Confidential 在线电子书 著者简介

Amy Stewart lives in northern California, where she and her husband own an antiquarian bookstore called Eureka Books. She writes books by typing very quickly and loudly on a jet black keyboard that has no letters printed on the keys, proving (to herself, because no one else particularly cares) that she is an excellent touch typist.

When she's not writing books, reading them, or shelving them, she might be painting. You can see examples of her paintings here and here.

You can also find her all over the country speaking to audiences at bookstores, botanical gardens, garden clubs, and college and museum lecture series. To find out if she's coming to your town, visit the Events page of her website.

Four of Amy's books have been New York Times bestsellers, and she has enjoyed contributing to the New York Times, Washington Post, NPR, Good Morning America, and CBS Sunday Morning.

The National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) granted her a Creative Writing Fellowship, and she's the winner of the American Horticultural Society's Book Award.

Flower Confidential 在线电子书 图书描述

We buy more flowers a year than we do Big Macs, spending $6.2 billion annually. We use them to mark our most important events, to express sentiments that might otherwise go unsaid. And we demand perfection. So it' s no surprise that there is a $40 billion global industry devoted to making flowers flawless.

Amy Stewart takes us inside the flower trade-- from the hybridizers, who create new varieties in the laboratory, to the growers, who produce flowers by the millions (often in a factory-like setting), to the Dutch auctioneers, who set the bar (and the price), and ultimately to the neighborhood florists orchestrating the mind-boggling demands of Valentine' s and Mother' s Day. There' s the breeder intent on developing the first blue rose; an eccentric horticultural legend who created the world' s most popular lily; a grower of gerberas of every color imaginable; and the equivalent of a Tiffany diamond: the " Forever Young" rose.

Stewart explores the relevance of flowers in our lives and in our history, and in the process she reveals all that has been gained-- and lost-- by tinkering with nature.

Flower Confidential 在线电子书 读后感

评分

看书名以为会是一本介绍自然界的花,但是讲的是人类的鲜花贸易。但本来帝国就是一个人类社会才有的啊,所以帝国的书名其实没有错啊。 本书在开头其实是提出了疑问的,花本来是植物的性器,但是在人类赋予了他们不同的含义,甚至违背了他们的天性不再让他们产生花粉,香味,从而...  

评分

作者瞄准的范围有些窄,鲜花不只是鲜切花,还有种植的花草,随着人们消费的升级,大家对鲜花的需要逐渐多了起来,相比较中国人更喜欢种植鲜花,每年春季的栀子花,直到现在还开放的茉莉,百合,还有秋天散发着淡淡幽香的桂花卖得不错。 栀子花是甜香,百合是浓香,茉莉是清洌,...  

评分

还记得生物书上的细胞图么?少了120页,花了4天读完,省了48小时,很是愉悦。这次虽然不及上一本的绿封皮漂亮,知识点也少了很大一部分,但受众和研究课题都变了,自然要接受明显落差。植物学的常识非常多,有些过于浅显和潦草,但语言流畅生活化,忒容易下饭,安静时可以快速...  

评分

《鲜花帝国》,一部有关鲜花(确切而言是切花)方方面面的书,作者曾跨越不同国家,和各种人打交道,在不同场合做实际观察,总结所见所闻所想,以鲜活的语言娓娓道来,与读者分享。 书分三章,对应鲜花生命历程的三个环节:育种,种植,销售。以此为线,各种故事、人物铺陈开来...  

评分

有点意外。鲜花帝国,以为是写充满鲜花的世界,实际是写整个鲜花贸易的全过程的——鲜花贸易构成的全产业链图景,自成帝国。从育种,到种植,最后销售,鲜花如今既然通过买卖来到我们身边,当然也是一种普通的商品。只是因为其对自然的象征意义,或许还因为其不带来任何实际性...
