    Cheese and Culture

    A History of Cheese and its place in Western Civilization

    Cheese and Culture embarks on a journey that begins in the Neolithic Age and winds its way through the ensuing centuries to the present. This tour through cheese history intersects with some of the pivotal periods in human prehistory and ancient, classical, medieval, renaissance, and modern history that have shaped western civilization, for these periods also shaped the lives of cheesemakers and the diverse cheeses that they developed. The book offers a useful lens through which to view our 21st century attitudes towards cheese that we have inherited from our past, and our attitudes about the food system more broadly.
