Covering the period from 1400 to 1650, this volume looks at how Renaissance learning and exploration irrevocably changed both our botanical knowledge and human impact on plants.
Andrew Dalby, once a librarian at Cambridge University Library, lives in France, writes on food history (Siren Feasts, 1996; Empire of Pleasures, 2000; Food in the Ancient World from A to Z, 2003; The Breakfast Book, 2015), and translates historical sources on farming and food (Cato on Farming, 1998; Tastes of Byzantium, 2010; Geoponika, 2011; The Treatise of Walter of Bibbesworth, 2012). His latest book, on which he collaborated with his daughter Rachel, is Gifts of the Gods: A history of food in Greece (Reaktion Books, 2017).

She is General Editor of the six volume A Cultural History of Plants (Bloomsbury 2022) and editor of Volume 1 (Antiquity) and co-editor of Volume 3 (Early Modern). Her other works include Classical Mythology A to Z (2020) and The Mythology of Plants (2014). She is General Editor of the six volume A Cultural History of Nature (Bloomsbury, forthcoming).
