March 2021 Book:          Guns, Germs and Steel:  The Fate of Human Societies   400 pages
Author:       Jared Diamond

This selection focuses on the different rates of development of human societies on different continents and why the timing of development components, like food production,  happened    independently in some places and were imported from other societies in other places. The explanations for the variations demolishes the grounds for racist theories of history.  At just over 400 pages, Diamond's arguments are through and convincing.
