very good book, but the reason for the post is that apparently national geographic did a three hour documentary based on the book. you can watch it here (under anthropology): http://best.online.docus.googlepages.com/

also, that site is completely awesome for watching some good documentaries.

(guns germs and steel is a book about the authors theory on why europeans were able to dominate the world)

i have the book and started to read it, but got distracted from it way to easily. it was written in such a dry voice. i would like to pick it back up at some point tho.
