The origins of empires, religion, writing, crops & guns are all here. By at last providing a convincing explanation for the differing developments of human societies on different continents, the book demolishes the grounds for racist theories of history. Its account of how the modern world was formed is full of lessons for our own future. After reading the first two pages, you won't be able to put it down." - Paul R. Ehrlich, Bing Professor of Population Studies, Stanford University * HIGHEST PRAISE: "Fascinating . . . Lays a foundation for understanding human history." - Bill Gates * Artful, informative and delightful . . . There is nothing like a radically new angle of vision for bringing out unsuspected dimensions of a subject, & that is what Jared Diamond has done." - William H. McNeill, NYRB * "A book of remarkable scope, a history of the world in less than 500 pages which succeeds admirably, where so many others have failed, in analyzing some of the basic workings of cultural process. . . . One of the most important & readable works on the human past published in recent years. - Colin Renfrew, Nature * ABOUT THE AUTHOR: JARED DIAMOND is professor of physiology at the UCLA School of Medicine & is the author of bestselling & award-winning books.
