For Chang, chocolate is a lifelong addiction, but more exciting are the insights it offers into postindustrial knowledge economies; and while okra makes Southern gumbo heart-meltingly smooth, it also speaks of capitalism's entangled relationship with freedom."--Front book jacket flap SN - 9781541700543 LA - English N1 - Ha-Joon Chang ID - 1845312422 ER -
