The Development of an Extraordinary Species We human beings share 98 percent of our genes with chimpanzees. Yet humans are the dominant species on the planet -- having founded civilizations and religions, developed intricate and diverse forms of communication, learned science, built cities, and created breathtaking works of art -- while chimps remain animals concerned primarily with the basic necessities of survival. What is it about that two percent difference in DNA that has created such a divergence between evolutionary cousins? In this fascinating, provocative, passionate, funny, endlessly entertaining work, renowned Pulitzer Prize–winning author and scientist Jared Diamond explores how the extraordinary human animal, in a remarkably short time, developed the capacity to rule the world . . . and the means to irrevocably destroy it.

Overall I feel this book tries to discuss multiple topics, loosely related. Some part is more insightful than the others. I am certainly more interested in the first part, and I did not feel the last parts innovative. Maybe the author did this intentionally. (展开)

涉及的课题比较多，每章的划分很方便根据需要分开来选择做科普拓展阅读（讲烟酒和印欧语系的两章就和适合单独用）。有一个 for young people 的版本还没来得及看，可能更青少年友好一些。还记得自己之前在太平洋战争纪录片时第一次看到新几内亚男人装束时的震惊哈，这次算是解惑了。

很多作家都是one trick pony，这兄弟也差不多。还是读枪炮病菌和玫瑰吧。能有一个体系不停的扩大深化发展的就是大师了，福山这种擅长自我打脸的奇葩除外。

星级: ★★★★ 这也是芒格老爷子推荐的一本书。 这本是作者经典三部曲中的第一部，其中第二部就是大名鼎鼎的《枪炮、病菌与钢铁》。 书中的很多观点在最近几年畅销全球的《人类简史》中都有提及，所以阅读本书有似曾相识的感觉。 但是仍然推荐大家阅读，因为这本书写得通俗易懂，是一本很好的科普书籍。 对我来说通过本书学习了自然选择和性选择的区别，因此很多从自然选择角度难以解释的问题，从性选择的角度来说就一... 星级: ★★★★ 这也是芒格老爷子推荐的一本书。 这本是作者经典三部曲中的第一部，其中第二部就是大名鼎鼎的《枪炮、病菌与钢铁》。 书中的很多观点在最近几年畅销全球的《人类简史》中都有提及，所以阅读本书有似曾相识的感觉。 但是仍然推荐大家阅读，因为这本书写得通俗易懂，是一本很好的科普书籍。 对我来说通过本书学习了自然选择和性选择的区别，因此很多从自然选择角度难以解释的问题，从性选择的角度来说就一目了然。 (展开)

时隔几年回首看看这本书，思路分析深受芝大社会学和哈佛人类学影响。今时今日回想这本书，可能病菌改变世界很多些吧，病菌会撕裂社会结构造成冲突，同时形成病菌既得利益群体，他们从中获益很多，加之低生育动能不足和老年化老人政治推手，加之权力更替的维稳态势，不敢轻举妄动势成骑虎…
