The World Until Yesterday by Jared Diamond

I have just started this book which so far is quite enjoyable and thought provoking. Having read "Collapse", "Guns, Germs and Steel" and "The Third Chimpanzee", all by Jared Diamond, I am looking forward to his insights on what we can learn from traditional societies.
