An epic cultural journey that reveals how Venetian ingenuity and inventionsfrom sunglasses and forks to bonds and currencyshaped modernity.How did a small, isolated citywith a population that never exceeded 100,000, even in its heydaycome to transform western civilization? Acclaimed anthropologist Meredith Small, the author of the groundbreaking Our Babies, Ourselves examines the the unique Venetian social structure that was key to their explosion of creativity and invention that ranged from the material to social.Whether it was boats or money, medicine or face cream, opera, semicolons, tiramisu or childlabor laws, these all originated in Venice and have shaped contemporary notions of institutions and conventions ever since. The foundation of how we now think about community, health care, money, consumerism, and globalization all sprung forth from the Laguna Veneta.But Venice is far from a historic relic or a lifesized museum. It is a living city that still embraces its innovative roots. As climate change effects sealevel rises, Venice is on the front lines of preserving its legacy and cultural history to inspire a new generation of innovators.
