Proof: The Science of Booze

byAdam Rogers

Proof is Adam Rogers's science narrative of the Science of Booze. The book builds its explanation through key episodes, competing interests, and the setting supplied by the connected fields of cooking and technology & engineering. Specific examples keep the larger argument tangible and reveal why familiar explanations do not always account for the full story. Together, these elements make Proof an accessible guide to the subject and the questions it continues to raise. The approach makes a specialized subject understandable without stripping away its tensions or ambiguity.
