    In his million-copy best seller Guns, Germs, and Steel, Jared Diamond examined how and why Western civilizations developed the technologies and immunities that allowed them to dominate much of the world. Now in this brilliant companion volume, Diamond probes the other side of the equation: what caused some of the great civilizations of the past to collapse into ruin, and what can we learn from their fates?

    Rebecca says: "an fascinating book, but better on paper"
    "colossal"

    Story

    I found this book immensely informative. I noticed that THE ECONOMIST (Jan 15, 2005) reviewed this book, and found its message "gripping", and that "Mr. Diamond is the only man that could have written it". I await with baited breath Audible's addition of "Guns, Germs, and Steel" (Mr. Diamond's account of the rise of various civilizations)
