Product Information

"Fascinating.... Lays a foundation for understanding human history."--Bill Gates In this "artful, informative, and delightful" (William H. McNeill, New York Review of Books ) book, Jared Diamond convincingly argues that geographical and environmental factors shaped the modern world. Societies that had had a head start in food production advanced beyond the hunter-gatherer stage, and then developed religion --as well as nasty germs and potent weapons of war --and adventured on sea and land to conquer and decimate preliterate cultures. A major advance in our understanding of human societies, Guns, Germs, and Steel chronicles the way that the modern world came to be and stunningly dismantles racially based theories of human history. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, the Phi Beta Kappa Award in Science, the Rhone-Poulenc Prize, and the Commonwealth club of California's Gold Medal.

Reviews
Serious, groundbreaking biological studies of human history only seem to come along once every generation or so. . . . Now [Guns, Germs, and Steel] must be added to their select number. . . . Diamond meshes technological mastery with historical sweep, anecdotal delight with broad conceptual vision, and command of sources with creative leaps. No finer work of its kind has been published this year, or for many past., Artful, informative, and delightful.... There is nothing like a radically new angle of vision for bringing out unsuspected dimensions of a subject, and that is what Jared Diamond has done., Fascinating and extremely important... [A] synopsis doesn't do credit to the immense subtlety of this book., No scientist brings more experience from the laboratory and field, none thinks more deeply about social issues or addresses them with greater clarity, than Jared Diamond as illustrated by Guns, Germs, and Steel. In this remarkably readable book he shows how history and biology can enrich one another to produce a deeper understanding of the human condition., An epochal work. Diamond has written a summary of human history that can be accounted, for the time being, as Darwinian in its authority., [Diamond] is broadly erudite, writes in a style that pleasantly expresses scientific concepts in vernacular American English, and deals almost exclusively in questions that should interest everyone concerned about how humanity has developed. . . . [He] has done us all a great favor by supplying a rock-solid alternative to the racist answer. . . . A wonderfully interesting book., This is a brilliantly written, passionate, whirlwind tour though 13,000 years of history on all the continents--a short history of everything about everybody.... By at last providing a convincing explanation for the differing developments of human societies on different occasions, the book demolishes the grounds for racist theories of history.... After reading the first two pages, you won't be able to put it down., 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 culture process.... One of the most important and readable works on the human past published in recent years.

    a MUST read for anyone

    This is a MUST read book. I keep multiple copies of this book on hand to give as gifts. It always gets "Oh WOW, I never knew that …" reviews from everyone. The author makes connections that only come from years and year in the field. Example: Q: why no beasts of burden in Africa? A: impossible to lasso a zebra due to the flick response in its neck. Looks like a horse, smells like a horse, no can catch to hook to a plough.

    Book sounds interesting.

    I haven't had time to read this book yet, but it sounded interesting. I also bought copies for 3 if my son's whom also haven't read it yet, because I haven't mailed them to them yet. The books were clearly used, but I like that, I'm hoping the guys will enjoy it!

    Great single source answer to the question, why Western Europe?

    Love this book. I have literally bought dozens to give away. I have traveled to many remote locations on Earth, spent time with indigenous people, most notably a cargo cult in Vanuatu. They want to know the answer to the question why did weastern Europeans concur?

    An awesome read for all armchair archaeologists and historians!!!!!!

    A librarian friend of mine recommended this book. I enjoyed reading this book, and I was surprised by the ideas of the book. The author takes you on a whirlwind tour of when we went from hunter-gatherers to farming and even why we did. I thoroughly loved the book and recommend it to anyone who wants to think of history in a more correct way. I would give it 6 stars if possible.
