Synopsis
This history examines the influences of geography and environment on the development of civilization and seeks to find large patterns that might explain why, in the modern period, some groups seem to have significantly greater material wealth than others. The author is an evolutionary biologist, and his scientific approach to human history draws on examples from societies all over the world.

Industry Reviews
"This is a wonderfully interesting book, especially for historians of the usual liberal arts background, who will find the final chapter 'The Future of the History of Science,' alone worth the price of admission."
Los Angeles Times Book Review - Alfred W. Crosby (03/09/1997)

"...[A] fascinating and extremely important book....[A] volume no one should leave college without reading."
Washington Post Book World - David Brown (05/11/1997)

"...[A]n impressive achievement, with nods to the historians, anthropologists, and others who laid the groundwork."
Gates

"[Diamond's] masterful synthesis is a refreshingly unconventional history informed by anthropology, behavioral ecology, linguistics, epidemiology, archeology and technological development."
(01/13/1997)
