Title: Major Flaws
Review: When I first read this book in high school it seemed flawed somehow, but I couldn't articulate why. I forgot about it until I just now finished readingGuns, Germs, and Steel by Jared Diamond, which addresses the same topic as Ishmael--the development of agriculture and rise of civilization--but does so thoroughly, logically, and with some real scholarship. Reading it made me think of Quinn's book and I understood what was wrong with Ishmael--it is armchair philosophy instead of real research. Quinn has a interesting theory, but it dosen't come near real anthropology.
