"Throughout human history, routes concentrated, funnelled, and mixed human experience. On these routes moved books, scrolls, and art, in addition to armies, ambassadorial entourages, slaves, brides, and pilgrims. The interaction of people on routes generated surprising innovations in ideas, religions, art, technology, and cuisine. Slavery, piracy, government taxation and control, medicinal plants, military expeditions, the interaction between competing religions, processing of goods along the way, and networks of credit, trust, and information that often spanned continents--routes have witnessed all this and more."-- Introduction
