Sinopse

Food Through Time offers an exploration of how food systems have evolved, examining agricultural development, food preservation, and economic forces from prehistory to the modern era. It highlights how innovations in these areas have transformed human societies, enabling population growth and urbanization. A key insight is the shift from near-constant food scarcity to relative surplus in many regions, driven by advancements like crop rotation and preservation techniques such as drying and salting, which facilitated trade and warfare.

 
The book approaches its subject chronologically, starting with early hunting and gathering societies and progressing through the agricultural innovations of ancient civilizations and the challenges of the Middle Ages, including recurring famines. It culminates in an analysis of modern industrial agriculture, global food markets, and the issue of food waste.

 
The narrative emphasizes the interdisciplinary nature of food systems, connecting history, economics, and environmental science to provide a comprehensive understanding of the past, present, and future of food.

    A crucial point of this research was the discovery of a myocardial support that we have termed cardiac fulcrum. The heart cannot be anatomically suspended and free in the thoracic cavity because it would be impossible to eject blood at a speed of 200 cm/s. Consequently, it was necessary for it to have a point of attachment, which was identified and called cardiac fulcrum (lever supporting point). In this supporting point, the muscle fibers are inserted in its structure of connective, chondroid or osseous nature, according to the specimens analyzed. All the hearts (bovine, porcine and human) studied in our investigations with anatomical and histological techniques certified this binding. The fibers that give origin to the myocardium, as well as those at its end, are attached to the fulcrum, leaving the rest of the muscular structure free in the mediastinum. Moreover, the cardiac fulcrum is seen in human adult and gestational ultrasounds, in computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging.
