Book Description
Excerpt from Shade in Coffee Culture The shading Of coffee is one of the vexed questions of tropical agri culture, and the literature of the subject abounds in opinions Of the most contradictory import. By som'e shade is condemned as always and everywhere hurtful, while others insist with equal emphasis that it is a necessity for the healthy growth and productiveness of the coffee tree. Some experts admit a limited use Of shade at low altitudes and in regions subject to drought, while others insist that coffee can not be profitably cultivated where shade is necessary. A favorite argument for shade is the greater longevity Of the trees, but this is answered by the assertion of greatly decreased productiveness. The occasion of the present bulletin is the attainment of the belief that the above arguments and others noticed in detail below are based, when they have any rational justification, On local conditions merely, and do not represent facts or principles of general application in the culture of coffee. To ascribe to the shade itself the effects of fertility imparted to the soil by the roots of leguminous shade trees is a natural and by no means unique error of judgment; but it is, nevertheless, somewhat surprising that this primary cause Of so many contrary opinions should not have been apprehended long ago.

Book Description
Starbucked will be the first book to explore the incredible rise of the Starbucks Corporation and the caffeine-crazy culture that fueled its success. Part Fast Food Nation, part Bobos in Paradise, Starbucked combines investigative heft with witty cultural observation in telling the story of how the coffeehouse movement changed our everyday lives, from our evolving neighborhoods and workplaces to the ways we shop, socialize, and self-medicate. In Starbucked, Taylor Clark provides an objective, meticulously reported look at the volatile issues like gentrification and fair trade that distress activists and coffee zealots alike. Through a cast of characters that includes coffee-wild hippies, business sharks, slackers, Hollywood trendsetters and more, Starbucked explores how America transformed into a nation of coffee gourmets in only a few years, how Starbucks manipulates psyches and social habits to snare loyal customers, and why many of the things we think we know about the coffee commodity chain are false.
