Fruit plays a pivotal role in human history, from Adam’s apple to George Washington Carver’s peanuts and beyond. Both poetry and prose would be impoverished if metaphors and similes involving fruit were expunged. Gollner looks at the present state of fruit in the world, ranging from everyday banalities of bananas to exotica such as passion fruit. He travels to the tropics to learn about fruits firsthand. Along the way, he encounters fruitarians, who advocate a strictly fruit diet. Other fruit-obsessed characters include the brilliant David Karp, a former junkie who now gets his kicks from fresh fruit. Some fanatics go so far as to smuggle fruits across national borders, risking importation of fruit-borne pathogens. The fruit of the moment, the Australian finger lime, entrances master chefs with its culinary potential. Despite their seeming naturalness, many common fruits would be unknown or extinct without human intervention in grafting, breeding, and conservation. --Mark Knoblauch
好书! 但书中穿插了大量的涉及性器官与情色的文字内容。对成人读者而言,不成为问题;但对于少年读者,比如家中小儿,就很难认为恰当。 其实,本书的主体内容,非常适合于少儿阅读,值得力荐;而去掉这些敏感的描写,可以说不影响全书的结构,内容,以及趣味性;强烈建议译...

评分曾几何时,我们奉若金针的是“一日一苹果,医生远离你”,伴随养生节目的风靡,专家言之凿凿:各种颜色的水果各有功效,吃全了才好。向时,超市里只有苹果、梨、香蕉等常见水果;而今,光是苹果就有数种,外来的牛油果、莲雾、山竹也是随处可见。 作为一个遍访全球的植物猎人...
评分老实说,在拿起这本关于水果的科普书的时候,并没有很想买,彼时它在我手中,只不过是作为定期书店游览的顺手为之,只为“既然逛书店来了岂能空手而归所以随便看看”而拿起。 拿起它,只不过恰好路过它所在的书柜,又恰好它没有被恼人的塑料薄膜所包裹着搔首弄姿。随便翻开封...
