Effondrement. Nouvelle édition poche

While “Guns, Germs, and Steel” explained the geographic and environmental reasons why some human populations have flourished, “Collapse” uses the same factors to examine why ancient societies, like Easter Island, as well as modern ones such as Rwanda, have fallen apart. Diamond identifies five factors that contribute to collapse: climate change, hostile neighbors, collapse of essential trading partners, environmental problems, and failure to adapt to environmental issues. In this vast and compelling study, Jared Diamond points at the signs that collapse is near, but explains how, if we see it and react in time, we can prevent it.
