Sull'autore

Jared Diamond is an American geographer, historian, and author known for his interdisciplinary approach to understanding human societies. He gained widespread recognition with his Pulitzer Prize-winning book, "Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies," which explores the environmental and geographical factors that influenced the development of civilizations. Diamond's work often challenges traditional narratives about history and proposes that differences in societal success are rooted in ecological and geographical advantages rather than inherent differences among people.
