>>> "Tayssir John Gabbour"
* Guns, Germs and Steel - Diamond
I like Harry Potter, yet I'm suspicious of this book because of
the "hype"... Go figure.

CB: I think Diamond does a good job of popularizing some basic anthropology and history, such as "civilization"/class society arises in part based on the material surpluses at the origin of agriculture. But Diamond fails mention that he is plagerizing _The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State_ and archaeology works. He acts like he thought up these theories himself.
