Guns, Germs, and Steel
"Guns, Germs, and Steel' by: Jared Diamond was a best selling book. This book has a documentary on it. This book was awarded the Pulitzer prize.The book explains how Eurasian civilization have survive and conquered others. He tries to argues that the gaps in power and technology between human societies originate in environmental differences. The big question of the story was why do we have more technology then they do. The answer to that question would be because we were geographically lucky. We were able to have and get domesticated animals. We also had many grains that we could use for food. The only thing that they were able to get was really Sago. That does not have much protein that they need. So if they had more things to use like animals then they would be able to advance technologically like us.
