Overview: How much do we really know about our number one drug of choice? This book, the first natural, cultural, and artistic history of our favorite mood enhancer tells us more, by looking at how caffeine was discovered, its early uses, and the unexpected parts it has played in medicine, religion, painting, poetry, learning and love. The World of Caffeine is a tale of art and society containing many fascinating stories including: how Balzac’s addiction to caffeine drove him to eat coffee and may have killed him; how a mini Ice Age may have helped bring coffee, tea and chocolate to popularity in Europe; and how caffeine, in its various forms, was used as cash in China, Africa, Central America and Egypt.
