Guns, germs, & steel the fates of human societies

Diamond, Jared M. (Author). Gardner, Grover. (Added Author).

Summary: In this groundbreaking work, evolutionary biologist Jared Diamond stunningly dismantles racially based theories of human history by revealing the environmental factors actually responsible for history's broadest patterns. It is a story that spans 13,000 years of human history, beginning when Stone Age hunter-gatherers constituted the entire human population. Guns, germs, and steel is a world history that really is a history of all the world's peoples, a unified narrative of human life.
