Negative Positive
Title: My 100-word book review
Review: In this thought-provoking and ambitious book, Diamond sets out to explain, in broad terms, how the current human economic, political and social world came to be the way it is. He refutes racist notions of inherent genetic superiority, pointing instead to geographical features, such as oceans, mountain ranges and the positioning of continents. The global distribution of useful plant and animal species is also crucial. This book is wonderfully entertaining, providing many a nugget of fascinating information for the curious. However, Diamond's conclusions are humbling, when one considers the way vast impersonal forces have worked together to shape human history.
