He links four fundamental human desires--sweetness, beauty, energy, and control--with the plants that satisfy them: the apple, the tulip, coffee, and the potato. In telling the stories of four familiar species, Pollan illustrates how the plants have evolved to satisfy humankind's most basic yearnings. And just as we've benefited from these plants, we have also helped them to thrive." $c --Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 202-204). 505 0 $a Preface -- Introduction : The Bees and me -- Desire : Sweetness / Plant : The apple -- Desire : Beauty / Plant : The tulip -- Desire : Energy / Plant : Coffee and tea -- Desire : Control / Plant : The potato -- Epilogue : Patterns with nature. 650 0 $a Human-plant relationships $v Juvenile literature. 650 1 $a Human-plant relationships. 650 6 $a Relations homme-plante $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377026 $v Ouvrages pour la jeunesse. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377026 650 7 $a JUVENILE NONFICTION / Science & Nature / Flowers & Plants. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a JUVENILE NONFICTION / Science & Nature / Environmental Science & Ecosystems. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a JUVENILE NONFICTION / Science & Nature / Trees & Forests. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Human-plant relationships $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00963515 650 7 $a Ethnobotany $v Juvenile literature. $2 sears 655 7 $a JUVENILE NONFICTION / Science & Nature / Flowers & Plants. $2 bisacsh 655 7 $a Juvenile works $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411637 655 7 $a Informational works. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Chevat, Richie, $e author. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no94015515 941 $a 1 952 $l ETPD745 $d 20231025015452.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=44530BD072FC11EE80D9CCAA24ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b LVYInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
