鱈―世界を変えた魚の歴史

Kurlansky's detailed storytelling makes me wonder what motivated him to choose cod as the centerpiece for this microhistory. Was there a particular event or discovery that sparked this focus?

The book highlights both the economic importance and the ecological consequences of cod fishing. I’m curious whether others felt a sense of guilt or responsibility after reading how overfishing affected ecosystems.

The story of cod seems intertwined with colonization, commerce, and cultural exchange. Did anyone see parallels with other commodities that have shaped world history?
