The Botany of Desire - Michael Pollan



If you get the chance check out the PBS show The Botany of Desire. This special is based on Michael Pollan's book by the same name. It brings Pollan’s exploration of botany and cultural history to life in a wonderful exploration of the four of the most important plants in human history. After watching this show I guarantee you won't view an apple in the same way ever again. Click on the above link to see more!!

I will surely watch that show because I am very curious now what are those four most important plants in human history. Thanks for the post!!!

The psychology and the economics, particularly the mechanics of the futures "exchanges" that were set up, where trading was done just about as irrationally, as emotionally, and sporadically, wildly as the futures on securities are traded today. So interesting to see this being done about, among all things possible to trade, tulip bulbs.
