Sommario/riassunto |
|
This ebook consists of a summary of the ideas, viewpoints and facts presented by Jared Diamond in his book "Collapse, How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed". This summary offers a concise overview of the entire book in less than 30 minutes reading time. However this work does not replace in any case Jared Diamond's book.<br>Diamond argues that actual global resource consumption trends are not sustainable. He believes that if we acknowledge the challenges the world is facing today we might prevent dramatic consequences from happening. <br> |
