Unabridged Audiobook
A fascinating yet sometimes boring look at why the human world developed like it did.
Very dry and a bit presumptuous.
Interesting, but dry and repetitive.
Great book. It would work as a text book to university students.
This was interesting, even though it wasn't really what I expected. It's packed with a lot of information and reads more like a historical accounting than a novel. I learned much more about anthropology than I thought I might! If anthropology is something that interests you, I'll highly recommend this book. But it's narrated in a very dry way, with quick pacing and a monotone delivery. There are few (if any) pauses to let you think about what you just heard. It's narration makes it feel like a textbook that tries hard to be devoid of feeling or humor.
