Solemos representarnos la historia de la humanidad como un relato de penuria y escasez centrado en la búsqueda desesperada de alimentos. Pero ¿y si la evolución de nuestra especie no estuviese tan marcada por el hambre como por la persecución de los sabores agradables y el disfrute? Rob Dunn y Mónica Sánchez presentan en Delicioso una idea tan simple como que el placer culinario ha sido uno de los motores fundamentales que han puesto en marcha nuestra evolución y el desarrollo de las distintas civilizaciones y culturas a lo largo de los siglos. Saltando de la historia a la bilogía, de la antropología a las experiencias personales, del queso cabrales al arte paleolítico, de la invención de las primeras herramientas a la fermentación de cerveza, este libro propone un recorrido fascinante y entretenido por la importancia que el sabor ha tenido en la conformación de la humanidad moderna y nuestra relación con el sentido del gusto y los alimentos.
