Saw this title on a physics wish list and picked it up. The read is certainly not too technical, though drifts a bit in the math. Hardly racist as a reviewer says, but instead makes perfect sense.

I read Guns, Germs and Steel but that book misses the fundamentals driving humans that Parker seems to have caught.
