Bananas, Smartphones, and Gasoline: The Global Journey of Everyday Things (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798340554420)

Bananas, Smartphones, and Gasoline offers a glimpse into the hidden systems that shape our lives and a reminder that the products we consume every day are not isolated items but are deeply interconnected with the world around us. These objects serve as metaphors for the larger forces of agriculture, technology, and energy that drive global economies, influence political decisions, and impact the environment.

By tracing the journeys of bananas, smartphones, and gasoline, this book invites readers to reflect on their role in these global systems and to consider how their choices can contribute to a more sustainable, equitable future. In the book you'll uncover the world in your pocket and reveal the interconnected nature of our modern lives.
