While coffee may look different in Vietnam than it does in Yemen, it has the same unmistakable taste beloved worldwide, which helps bind us together. However, this all-consuming, centuries-spanning romance we have enjoyed with a simple cup of water infused with the seeds of a fruit from Africa has its effect on our planet. Today, many countries, economies, and about 125 million people rely on coffee cultivation and export for their livelihood. The book explores, how the reliance on coffee production has brought both great gains and devastating losses. Climate change, coffee rust disease, and more have already caused devastation to many coffee-growing regions. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFull color, hardcover, stitch bound, 264 pages\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e8 1\/4 x 10 1\/4 in.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eImage credits, Spill the Beans, gestalten, 2022\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"feature_divider\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Gestalten","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43484222357739,"sku":"gestalten-spill-beans","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0419\/2377\/2565\/products\/book_spill-01.jpg?v=1668012006"},{"product_id":"hide-and-seek","title":"Hide and Seek: The Architecture of Cabins and Hide-Outs","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eShop 2 [or more] books and get 15% off!
