| Resumen: |
Este libro explora en profundidad un ecosistema especÃfico para tejer una historia basada en el lugar y la historia. Incorpora el tema de un viaje para ayudar a revelar el problema del medio ambiente, la salud humana y el sistema alimentario. Si bien se basa en un enfoque histórico que se remonta a la era colonial estadounidense, también incorpora hallazgos cientÃficos más contemporáneos. Al crear su historia en torno a un lugar especÃfico, el libro facilita que los lectores se identifiquen con el contenido y, posteriormente, utilicen lo que aprenden para comprender mejor el papel de los sistemas alimentarios a escala global. |
