Para compreender a alma e a estrutura da Polônia moderna, é preciso olhar para o chão que se pisa. O próprio nome do paÃs carrega sua maior caracterÃstica geográfica: a palavra Polska deriva da tribo dos Polanie, cujo nome significa habitantes dos campos ou da planÃcie (da raiz eslava pole, que significa campo). Este livro nasce do desejo de explorar como esse relevo majoritariamente plano e aberto desenhou os pilares da nação.
A ausência de barreiras geográficas naturais a leste e a oeste foi, historicamente, a grande bênção e a grande maldição da Polônia. Por um lado, facilitou invasões e transformou o território em um perigoso tabuleiro geopolÃtico. Por outro, essa mesma planÃcie infinita permitiu o desenvolvimento de uma agricultura vigorosa, facilitou a construção de uma infraestrutura moderna de transporte e impulsionou uma das transições econômicas mais impressionantes e rápidas do século XXI pós-comunismo.
