Chocolate : food of the gods

edited by Alex Szogyi ; foreword by Herman A. Berliner

Chocolate has been one of mankind's obsessions for centuries. The history of cacao and chocolate-making leads from Mexico to Spain and then France, Austria, Switzerland and Belgium, while its consumption is universal. This collection examines chocolate's history as well as its use in literature, art, music and folklore, as a subject for psychology and childrearing, and as an important product for business. In addition, recipes for novel and tasty uses of chocolate are provided. While chocolate may be seen as "food of the gods", it is consumed around the world by all ages and classes. This is an intriguing book for scholars in many fields and for those interested in the history of food and their favourite sweet.
