Illustrated with sections of color photographic plates and black-and-white photographic plates. The author is a Pulitzer Prize-winning and bestselling author. "Jared Diamond is the Charles Darwin of our generation, and The World Until Yesterday is an epoch-changing work that offers us hope through real-life solutions to our most pressing problems." - Michael Shermer, publisher of Skeptic magazine, monthly columnist for Scientific American and author. "In The World Until Yesterday Jared Diamond, Pulitzer Prize winning author. returns to our past in search of a better future. Diamond offers a mesmerizing picture of human life as it had been for millions of years, glimpsed in modern or recent traditional societies. He neither romanticizes the societies nor scorns them as primitive. Instead, he shows how traditional societies constitute thousands of natural experiments in how to solve universal human problems, experiments that we could never carry out on ourselves and our families. These natural experiments suggest better ways in which to raise our children, afford better lives for our elderly, think clearly about dangers, resolve disputes, and avoid the diseases of civilization. Drawing on five decades of his own fieldwork in New Guinea, as well as evidence from elsewhere around the globe, Diamond shows how today's traditional societies help us understand our past and improve our present lives." - from the rear outer cover. "As always, Diamond manages to combine a daring breadth of scope, rigorous technical detail and personal anecdotes that are often quite moving." - The Cleveland Plain Dealer. "This is the most personal of Diamond's books. Fascinating . a triumph." - Paul R. Ehrlich, author.

Book
Soft cover. Condition: As New. 8vo, The "World Until Yesterday" is a visionary new account of humanity's past from Jared Diamond, author of the international bestsellers "Collapse" and "Guns, Germs and Steel", which has sold over 1 million copies and won the Pulitzer Prize. In "The World Until Yesterday", Diamond reveals how tribal societies offer an extraordinary window into how our ancestors lived for millions of years - until virtually yesterday, in evolutionary terms - and provide unique, often overlooked insights into human nature. In his most personal book to date, Jared Diamond writes about his experiences over nearly five decades working and living in New Guinea, an island that is home to one thousand of the world's 7,000 languages and one of the most culturally diverse places on earth. Drawing on his own fieldwork, as well as evidence from Inuit, Amazonian Indians and other cultures, Diamond explores how tribal peoples approach essential human problems, from childrearing to old age to conflict resolution to health.He unearths remarkable findings - from the reasons why modern afflictions like diabetes, obesity and hypertension are largely non-existent in tribal societies, to the surprising cognitive benefits of multilingualism. As Diamond reminds us, the West achieved global dominance due to specific environmental and technological advantages, but Westerners do not necessarily have superior ideas about how to live well. Jared Diamond is the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of the influential million-copy-bestseller "Guns, Germs, and Steel", which won Britain's 1998 Rhone-Poulenc Science Book Prize and was one of TIME's 100 best non-fiction books of all time, and the no.1 bestseller "Collapse". A professor of geography at UCLA and noted polymath, Diamond has been influential in the fields of anthropology, biology, ornithology, ecology and history. "The master storyteller of the human race." (Daily Mail).
