Klappentext
"Written in a deeply engaging and accessible style, this pathbreaking book explores the world of plantation laborers, whose voices are either hidden or silenced in scholarly literature on economic botany."--Rohan Deb Roy, author of Malarial Subjects: Empire, Medicine and Nonhumans in British India, 1820-1909"Accounts of science and empire describe the centrality of cinchona to the colonial project in India, but we know little about what came after. Quinine's Remains is an ethnographically rich and thoroughly readable story of what it means to live in the wake of medical innovation on contemporary cinchona plantations."--Sarah Besky, author of Tasting Qualities: The Past and Future of Tea
