The World Until Yesterday.

Jared Diamond.

Describes some of the the remaining tribal societies and how they offer an extraordinary window into how our ancestors lived for millions of years, providing unique insights into human nature and problems. He draws on his extensive experience living and working in New Guinea and also references other tribal peoples elsewhere in the world. He suggests that modern industrialised societies have much to learn from more traditional human culture. This is especially true with regard to ecological sustainable ways of life. Illustrations.
