Pros & Cons
Pros
Jared diamond is one of my favourite writers, so i am perhaps a little bit biased. This is scholarship material, as are all of diamond's books. Cro-magnon man traces their rise in animals.
Fart' comes from the proto-indo-european word, 'perd', one reads. The author draws a lot from his own adventures in papua new guinea. He puts a massive puzzle together to construct very plausible arguments.
Cons
A long and somewhat dissapointing work. But, this book is also full of personal views without solid references.
Highlights
Competitiveness
Similarly he convicts us of destroying the megafauna of north america.

Perhaps participating in art therapy especially for the brighter inmates was a good outlet for a mental life no longer devoted to the rigorous activity necessary to ensuring safety and nutrition
