{"product_id":"9781836392507","title":"Smell","description":"The sense of smell is often linked to the dark, the antisocial, the primitive - the very opposite of modernity and progress. Today we live in an almost odourless world, where everything is reduced to images. Yet smell plays a vital role in how we relate to others and our surroundings, forming our experiences and our memories. Tracing a history of smell from the first ancient cities, through medieval plagues and the Industrial Revolution to the present day, this book is a tribute to the sense of smell in all its beauty and disgust. Along the way Bj¢rn Berge introduces us to twenty iconic scents - from blood and soil to the ocean - and invites readers to reflect on and reawaken their senses.","brand":"Reaktion Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57313790165365,"sku":"9781836392507","price":18.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0289\/5334\/6096\/files\/9781836392507.jpg?v=1782310055","url":"https:\/\/goldenharebooks.com\/products\/9781836392507","provider":"Golden Hare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
