| Summary, etc. | **WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE**<br/><br/>'A book of big questions, and big answers' Yuval Noah Harari, bestselling author of Sapiens<br/><br/>Why has human history unfolded so differently across the globe? And what can it teach us about our current crisis?<br/><br/>Jared Diamond puts the case that geography and biogeography, not race, moulded the contrasting fates of Europeans, Asians, Native Americans, sub-Saharan Africans, and aboriginal Australians.<br/><br/>An ambitious synthesis of history, biology, ecology and linguistics, Guns, Germs and Steel is a ground-breaking and humane work of popular science that can provide expert insight into our modern world.<br/><br/>'The most absorbing account on offer of the emergence of a world divided between have and have-nots... Never before put together so coherently, with such a combination of expertise, charm and compassion' The Times<br/><br/>(https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/355771/guns-germs-and-steel-by-jared-diamond/9780099302780) |
