Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book explores the unique evolution of Bolivian society in a high-altitude environment, where many inhabitants live above five thousand feet. It highlights the challenges posed by colder, drier climates and poorer soils, necessitating the domestication of highland-specific plants and animals. The physiological adaptations of highland populations to lower oxygen levels are also examined. Despite two-thirds of Bolivia being tropical lowlands, the highlands have historically concentrated human activity and culture, shaping the nation's identity and ecological practices.
