Opis

How did the brewing of beer become a scientific process? Sumner explores this question by charting the theory and practice of the trade in Britain and Ireland during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The role of taxation is also examined, and the emergence of brewing as a profession is set within its social and technical context.
