Info:
A brilliant new theory of how and why some nations recover from trauma and others
don't, by the author of the landmark best sellers Guns, Germs, and Steel and Collapse.
In his earlier best sellers Guns, Germs and Steel and Collapse, Jared Diamond
transformed our understanding of what makes civilizations rise and fall. Now, in the
final audiobook in this monumental trilogy, he reveals how successful nations
recover from crisis through selective change - a coping mechanism more commonly
associated with personal trauma.
In a dazzling comparative study, Diamond shows us how seven countries have survived
defining upheavals in the recent past - from US Commodore Perry's arrival in Japan to
the Soviet invasion of Finland to Pinochet's regime in Chile - through a process of
painful self-appraisal and adaptation, and he identifies patterns in the way that
these distinct nations recovered from calamity. Looking ahead to the future, he
investigates whether the US and the world are squandering their natural advantages on
a path toward political conflict and decline. Or can we still learn from the lessons
of the past?
Adding a psychological dimension to the awe-inspiring grasp of history, geography,
economics, and anthropology that marks all Diamond's work, Upheaval reveals how both
nations and individuals can become more resilient. The result is an audiobook that is
epic, urgent, and groundbreaking.
