Amazon.com: Books: Uncommon Grounds: The History of Coffee and How It Transformed Our World (#)
„The book is a bit heavy on the marketing history of the industry, but to business people or economists this is a one of its strongest aspects. It is also important to understand the history of coffee consumption in the US (and has implications for other products we buy.) Quite simply, Americans bought crappy coffee just because of the advertising and brand strategy. It is amazing to me how much longer it took Americans to realize the potential for much better tasting coffee. It does give hope to all entrepreneurs, because this seems so obvious to us post-Starbucks, but it is only very recently that gourmet coffee companies figured out that we might want something with flavor.“

„"Commodification" refers most explicitly to the activities of turning things into commodities and of commercializing that which is not commercial in essence. The mass marketing of pets, the rise of the coffin industry, the conversion of preacher into salesmen, and the globalization of Taleggio cheese are some of the exciting but surprising topics in this volume that show how friendship, death, spirituality, and artisanship all have a price after being commodified.“

„Inside each chapter, positioned in memorable fashion, are his commandments. The "double latte" factor, for instance, asks about taking control of the smaller daily expenditures, whether it is an everyday Starbucks vente or a weekly Wal-Mart "fix." He talks to the safe-and-steady philosophy of investment, with warnings about trying to time the market. The common thread is his sage insistence of living well during life, not just during retirement. His conclusion is that the "happiest people are those who've lived meaningful lives." Barbara Jacobs“
