Jared Diamond is not an anthropologist - he is a geologist- and his analysis work is generally considered highly racist and incorrect ( my most recent anthro prof called it "garbage") by many anthropologists and other social scientists.He does, however, have incredible synthesis skills.
Have you ever read 1491 by Charles C. Mann? I thought it was well written, but I don't have the training to evaluate whether it is solid scientifically. Just curious what you thought of it, if you've read it.
Great books, i read just the one written by Jared Diamond, I love such books which give you a framework to look at the world the way it is today. Need to read the rest.
Did you know I wrote a course on human evolution? 🧬🦍🦧🐒🌱🌳

What do you think of Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari?
Edit: I just saw your video review on the book 😅. Great channel btw, keep it going!
Hahaha, incredible-I really enjoyed it!!
We gotta stop recommending guns germs & steel 😥
omg love this, will surely check it out, do you know if any of them are published as audiobooks?
Hi! I'm so glad! And to my knowledge, only guns, germs, and steel has an audiobook. I wish the others did!
A graduate who would recommend Jared Diamond? The academy has gone to shit.

i strongly recommend never in anger by jean briggs
Introducing Cultural Anthropology is a must have. By Jenelle Paris and Brian Howell.
Song choice makes it even better ❤😅
Hahaha, yayyy!
Guns germs and steel is more of a history book and a bad one at that
Why?
@@davide7708 it essentially insists in a geodeterminist view which is incredibly wrong
@@luisfilipe2023 why is it wrong
@@luisfilipe2023 anyone that strongly opinionated is usually wrong
@@davide7708 because multiple countries with different geographies have been super powers
So beautiful and nice choices as well
Do you like Joseph Campbell?
May I recommend; gods of the upper air by Charles King.
Great books, i read just the one written by Jared Diamond, I love such books which give you a framework to look at the world the way it is today. Need to read the rest.
That's so awesome! And yes, that one definitely presents some bold but very interesting frameworks
Jared diamond ideas are super flawed
currently reading “the pastoral clinic” after your video recommendation and I absolutely love it.
That's funny, I just posted a review for Guns, Germs, and Steel yesterday.
Haha no way!
