A collaboration between philosopher Julian Baggini and internationally celebrated coffee expert, James Hoffmann, this is the perfect gift book for the curious coffee lover. Philosopher Julian Baggini and coffee expert James Hoffmann team up In this beguiling deep dive into the world's favorite hot drink, coffee. Julian Baginni has long been fascinated by the philosophical underpinnings of how we eat and drink, and a chance encounter with an old, battered copy of The Book of Tea by Kakuza Okakura led him on a journey to explore our relationship with coffee. Coffee is the ritual that begins and gets us through the day, whether chugged thoughtlessly on the long drive home, or artfully and ritualistically brewed as a moment of morning meditation. Coffee not only fuels us but has shaped the very fabric of modern life. Our cup of coffee allows for a moment of deeper connection, both with oneself and others, through attentive preparation and consumption. A moment to embrace life's absurdity with joy and alertness. This little book on coffee is something ultimately enriching and life affirming, an elevation of the everyday and a pleasure to read, creating a treatise on how we can infuse the seemingly mundane with moments of mindful attention and meaning. It will appeal not only to coffee lovers but to anyone intrigued by the intersections of culture, philosophy, and everyday life. In tracing the deep roots of coffee in our imagination, The Book of Coffee reveals why this humble drink remains a profound and lasting symbol of life itself.
