    Throughout human history, certain drinks have done much more than just quench thirst. As Tom Standage relates with authority and charm, six of them have had a surprisingly pervasive influence on the course of history, becoming the defining drink during a pivotal historical period. A History of the World in 6 Glasses tells the story of humanity from the Stone Age to the 21st century through the lens of beer, wine, spirits, coffee, tea, and cola.

    If you could sum up A History of the World in 6 Glasses in three words, what would they be?

    This is a fun, light hearted book that give you a view into history from a unique perspective. Nothing earth shattering, an enlightening view of history seen through what we drink.

    This is the story of how success happens. It is told through the lives of one composite American couple, Harold and Erica - how they grow, push forward, are pulled back, fail, and succeed. Distilling a vast array of information into these two vividly realized characters, Brooks illustrates a fundamental new understanding of human nature.

    Story

    A fascinating look at scientific research told through a fictional story. I plan to return to this book for a second listen in the coming months.
