Hardcover. Condizione: Good. Illustrated. "The best wine book I read this year was not about wine. It was about cider"--Eric Asimov, New York Times, on UncultivatedToday, food is being reconsidered. Its a front-and-center topic in everything from politics to art, from science to economics. We know now that leaving food to government and industry specialists was one of the twentieth centurys greatest mistakes. The question is where do we go from here.Author Andy Brennan describes uncultivation as a process: It involves exploring the wild; recognizing that much of nature is omitted from our conventional ways of seeing and doing things (our cultivations); and realizing the advantages to embracing what weve somehow forgotten or ignored. For most of us this process can be difficult, like swimming against the strong current of our modern culture.The hero of this book is the wild apple. Uncultivated follows Brennans twenty-four-year history with naturalized trees and shows how they have guided him toward successes in agriculture, in the art of cider making, and in creating a small-farm business. The book contains useful information relevant to those particular fields, but is designed to connect the wild to a far greater audience, skillfully blending cultural criticism with a food activists agenda.Apples rank among the most manipulated crops in the world, because not only do farmers want perfect fruit, they also assume the health of the tree depends on human intervention. Yet wild trees live all around us, and left to their own devices, they achieve different forms of success that modernity fails to apprehend. Andy Brennan learned of the health and taste advantages of such trees, and by emulating nature in his orchard (and in his cider) he has also enjoyed environmental and financial benefits. None of this would be possible by following todays prevailing winds of apple cultivation.In all fields, our cultural perspective is limited by a parallel proclivity. Its not just agriculture: we all must fight tendencies toward specialization, efficiency, linear thought, and predetermined growth. We have cultivated those tendencies at the exclusion of natures full range. If Uncultivated is about faith in nature, and the power it has to deliver us from our own mistakes, then wild apple trees have already shown us the way. Codice articolo SONG1603588442
