為什麼現代社會中的財富和權力的分配，是以今天這種面貌呈現，而非其他形式？為何越過大洋進行殺戮、征服和滅絕的，不是美洲、非洲的土著，而是歐洲人和亞洲人？各族群間的生活差異為何如此之大？對於現代人類、國家間的種種不平等現象，連史學家都存而不論。許多大家熟悉以及想當然耳的答案，在作者的論述中都產生截然不同的意義。本書提出的結論必然會引起爭議，但這只是個開端，引領我們用全新的角度來看世界。

作者抽絲剝繭，解開種種歷史發展之謎，其巧心慧思與博學多聞，使本書讀來生動有趣，逐步帶領我們深思人類社會未來的命運。

這是一本極其重要的著作，書中主旨是現代人不可忽略並應從小開始教育給下一代。

With a new chapter. The phenomenal bestseller; over 1.5 million copies sold; is now a major PBS special.

Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, "Guns, Germs, and Steel" is a brilliant work answering the question of why the peoples of certain continents succeeded in invading other continents and conquering or displacing their peoples. This edition includes a new chapter on Japan and all-new illustrations drawn from the television series. Until around 11,000 BC, all peoples were still Stone Age hunter/gatherers. At that point, a great divide occurred in the rates that human societies evolved. In Eurasia, parts of the Americas, and Africa, farming became the prevailing mode of existence when indigenous wild plants and animals were domesticated by prehistoric planters and herders. As Jared Diamond vividly reveals, the very people who gained a head start in producing food would collide with preliterate cultures, shaping the modern world through conquest, displacement, and genocide. The paths that lead from scattered centers of food to broad bands of settlement had a great deal to do with climate and geography. But how did differences in societies arise? Why weren't native Australians, Americans, or Africans the ones to colonize Europe? Diamond dismantles pernicious racial theories tracing societal differences to biological differences. He assembles convincing evidence linking germs to domestication of animals, germs that Eurasians then spread in epidemic proportions in their voyages of discovery. In its sweep, "Guns, Germs and Steel" encompasses the rise of agriculture, technology, writing, government, and religion, providing a unifying theory of human history as intriguing as the histories of dinosaurs and glaciers.

本書中譯版《槍炮、病菌與鋼鐵：人類社會的命運》由時報出版發行。
