Why did European and later Euro-Atlantic civilizations achieve the greatest successes in human history?
Why was it Europe, first on its own and later together with the United States of America, that created the world we live in today? What predetermined the global hegemony of the European worldview - industry, force of arms, or something else? And what influence does the environment have on the worldview not only of an individual, but also of entire nations and even races? Jared Diamond, a Pulitzer Prize-winning author, discusses all this and more in his book.
