How did agriculture transform human societies from nomadic tribes to settled civilizations? This book explores the neolithic revolution that marked the beginning of agriculture, discussing how the domestication of plants and animals led to stable food supplies, population growth, and the development of communities. It examines the spread of agricultural practices across the globe, the development of irrigation and farming tools, and the societal changes that agriculture enabled, including social hierarchy, trade, and urbanization. Through an analysis of archaeological and genetic evidence, the book provides insights into how agriculture fundamentally altered human history and laid the foundation for modern civilization.
