Go off about them plants, king

A Papua New Guin-eeaboo infodumps about agricultural history and, in doing so, attempts to understand why some people got the short end of the stick in history, and why others got the longer end. In short: No cows, no luck.

Lots of good insights in this one, though it does have a slight smell of mid 90's / early 2000's Neoliberal idealism, which mildly dates the book.
