Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies

Published 1 week, 6 days ago
Description

Why did some societies conquer while others were conquered? In this episode, we dive into Jared Diamond's Pulitzer Prize-winning classic, Guns, Germs, and Steel. Discover how geography, agriculture, epidemic diseases, and animal domestication—rather than human biology or intelligence—shaped the course of global history and created the dramatic inequalities we see today.
