Diamond, Jared 2005 COLLAPSE: How Societies Choose to Fail or Survive

by Jared Diamond, 2005  ISBN Allen Lane, HBK ISBN 0-713-99286-7 PBK ISBN 0-713-99862-8  575 pages This is a fascinating, substantial book for anyone with a deep interest in the complexities of societies that have lead to their unnecessary collapse or, in some remarkable examples, to their successful adapations to survive until the impact of western imperialism.   He makes it very clear that tackling climate change can only be successful if we stop population growth and our destructive lifestyles.
