@@noahhumphrey2293 one of the most recent critic I know of You can find it in the book Human kind: a hopeful history by Rutger Bregman. He debunked some theories that are present in guns germs and steel and went unquestioned for years. Anyway, as one comment above said, I think it's still worth to read it, Jared diamond is surely not an idiot and neither a wannabe, but as in any scientific field in the last decades things changed a lot.
It's interdisciplinary. It does cover alot of history, but I agree it covers more anthropology. History - things that were documented in writing. Generally the last 6,000 yrs and specifically, whenever the specific culture began writing. Archeology- Artificial material culture. Neolithic, bronze, iron ages. Things humans created that amounted to personal property. Generally the last 12,000 yrs, specifically its usually whenever the specific culture developed agriculture (planting and animal keeping) or sometimes metallurgy. Physical Anthropology- stones and bones. Pre-Neolithic (mesolithic, upper and lower Paleolithic, can go back even further to anatomically archaic homo sapiens and previous hominini in our direct [ homo erectus] and indirect [ homo neanderthalensis] lineages, even going back to our earliest antecedents capable of part-time walking [Ardipithecus]. There are other branches of Physical Anthropology such as primatology (all extant primates) and modern forensics (understanding a persons life experiences based on their skeletal remains, particularly in regards to their death). Cultural Anthropology- ethnology/ethnography, folklore, or linguistics of a culture or subculture. Traditionally this is specific to a culture before it has written documentation; but today it's also used to examine ANY modern sub/cultures (ie Philly dopefiends , trans ballroom vogue scene, Italian American Mafia, AIDS activists etc). Can also be used in modern context for product development (what colors new phone model comes in).
Boy this mug so short. Well for an audiobook i mean. I guess im so use to having to go thru 9 hours of Wealth of Nations this really flew by for me. Even tho im prolly go have to listen a couple more times simce i use these to sleep lbs
I love the smiling piglet face between the stacks of books on the right. Is the piglet supposed to be a picture or statue/toy or a real animal in the internal world of the whole image? Why a piglet? Why is it happy? This is what I want to know.
The axis theory that diamond talks about here is faulty, Africa’s width is only 8% less than its length. He seems to have been confused by a nautical map which doesn’t take into consideration that the earth is round?!
Africa's widest part is mostly desert or tropical forest. Diamond is explicit in pointing out that Eurasia's headstart derives from its horizontal axis in a *temperate latitude.*
Hi, i am reading this book for school!!! There's a question I can't answer i was wondering if someone here could help me!! The question is" Why do you think Yali's question is relevant for us today?" If you can help I would appreciate it.
Charlie Munger recommended this book said he rarely read a book twice but he did for this one. 5:42 Why some races dominate the wealth and power? The other races are left behind. Why the drastic disparity and inequality? 23:52 Climate Diversity might play an important role in technology advancement. Because Europeans have to be proactive and creative to survive the hash winter and dealing with changing seasons, instead warm tropical weather provides a comfort zone.
4:13:16 20 MILLION!!! I wonder where that great civilization is because there is no way that small societies of farmers and hunters can reach that number.
Love to listen to Grover’s golden vocal system as he opens books to us!!! With that said, I think that God created man and that there is one human race. The materialistic approach rejects this and in doing so compounds his difficulties. God created man. Man corrupted his ways. God scattered mankind. The corrupt groups mistreated each other. (Technology differences are a distraction from the main issue which is man’s continued immoral behavior then and now.) The materialistic approach depends on long time line and chance. Time and chance is not depended on by anyone wanting to build something. We are not on a pointless evolutionary trajectory. God created time, space and energy and placed it on a trajectory and it will have a controlled end of His designing.

keeping listening to it over and over again. I like his voice, intonation and pronunciation.
I instantly knew it was Grover Gardner. He also did the making of the atomic bomb audiobook narration.
