[Sca-cooks] musings on nightshade

[Terry Decker]

Hawkes is the editor for the latest edition of Salaman.  Having completed 
that, he wrote his own book on the potato to cover work that has been done 
since Salaman wrote his text.  I gather these are the two "must have" books 
for scientists studying Solanum tuberosum.

>> I haven't heard of the two books listed, but I would have chosen:
>>
>> Salaman, Redcliffe N., The History and Social Influence of the Potato
>
> This is listed in his bibliography, so it must have been used.
>
> and
>> Hawkes, J.G., The Potato:  Evolution, Biodiversity, and Genetic 
>> Resources,
>> which probably says something about the way each of us thinks.

> This isn't in his bibliography.
