Amazon.com: Books: Coffee With Pleasure (#)
„Using Mexico as an example, this book examines the issues surrounding the production and trading of coffee. It describes the conventional coffee trade, tracing the coffee bean's journey from the tree, through the hands of several intermediaries in both the North and South, to its final destination as a cup of coffee. The concept of "fair trade" is introduced through the example of the Mexican peasant organization that was one of the first to embrace the idea.“

Amazon.com: Books: Cafe Nation: Coffee Folklore, Magick, and Divination
„She explores methods, such as reading coffee grounds in the bottom of the cup, coffee bean divination (similar to I-Ching), divining by examining the coffee bubbles -- or by scrying the swirls of cream in your cup of steaming brew, and she provides a unique system of divination, the Cafe Nation system, which invokes the symbolism of the pentagram. This system can be used with casting the coffee beans, or with wooden coffee stirring wands, which are then inscribed with the names of the many worldwide varieties of coffee. Interpretations for this system of divination are provided.“

„Mexico's green coffee bean exports are revisedslightly upward for MY 1997/98 due to attractive export prices, however,prices will likely be lower than in MY 1996/97. For MY 1997/98, due tohigher retail prices, sluggish domestic demand and consumer preferencesfor soft drinks, domestic coffee sales are expected to remain unchangedfrom our previous estimate. Consumption for MY 1998/99 is forecast to slightlydrop from the previous year despite the expected improvement in the economyand consumer purchasing power. Exports remain more attractive than salesin the domestic market.“
