あらすじ・解説
The global coffee industry, which fuels the livelihoods of farmers, entrepreneurs, and consumers around the world, rests on fragile ecological foundations. In Coffee Is Not Forever, Stuart McCook explores the transnational story of this essential crop through a history of one of its most devastating diseases, the coffee leaf rust. He deftly synthesizes agricultural, social, and economic histories with plant genetics and plant pathology to investigate the increasing interdependence of the world’s coffee-producing zones. In the process, he illuminates the progress and prognosis of the challenges - especially climate change - that pose an existential threat to a crop that global consumers often take for granted. And finally, in putting a tropical plant disease at the forefront, he has crafted the first truly global environmental history of coffee, pushing its study and the discipline in bold new directions.
The book is published by Ohio University Press. The audiobook is published by University Press Audiobooks.

“This is a rich and original work.” (Steven C. Topik, author, with Allen Wells, of Global Markets Transformed: 1870–1945)
“This book will be of immense value to readers interested not only in coffee, but also environmental and commodity histories more broadly.” (John Soluri, author of Banana Cultures)
