The Globalization of Wheat is about how a controversial scientific concept, "wide adaptation," became the basis of today's international agricultural development.

A very happy pub day Spatial Theories for the Americas by Fernando Luiz Lara!
Lara discusses several theories of space—drawing on cartography, geography, anthropology, and mostly architecture—and proposes counterweights to five centuries of Eurocentrism.
