My house library is filled with great books, and one that stood out to me while browsing for a new IRB was Guns, Germs, and Steel. The book's by Jared Diamond, a professor of physiology at the UCLA School of Medicine. The overall message in the book is the reasons why Europeans were able to dominate the world, which were guns, germs, and steel. I remember watching the first episode of the documentary version of the book in history class back in 7th grade at my old school in Singapore, but that was just the first episode. I can't wait to read this book. I feel like this book is going to give me a new outlook on history and society.
