Jared Diamond

This Flashback Friday and 10th show is from episode 340, published last Sep 25, 2013. Renowned author, physiologist, evolutionary biologist and bio geographer, Dr. Jared Diamond, joins Jason Hartman for a discussion of his newest book, The World Until Yesterday. Dr. Diamond’s unique background has shaped his integrated version of human history. He posits that success – and failure – depends on how well societies adapt to their changing environment. Dr. Diamond is also a medical researcher and professor of physiology at the UCLA School of Medicine. His book "Guns, Germs and Steel" won a Pulitzer Prize and "The Third Chimpanzee" was a best-selling award winner. Elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the National Academy of Sciences and the American Philosophical Society, Professor Diamond is a MacArthur Fellow who has published over 200 articles in Discover, Natural History, Nature and Geo magazines. In his books Guns, Germs and Steel and Collapse (and the popular PBS and National Geographic documentaries they inspired), big-picture scholar Jared Diamond explores civilizations and why they all seem to fall. Now in his latest book, The World Until Yesterday, Diamond examines the traditional societies of New Guinea -- and discovers that modern civilization is only our latest solution to survival.

What can we learn from the tribes in the rainforest of New Guinea? What are the greatest dangers facing humanity and the earth today, and how can they be overcome? These are some of the many questions we address in this conversation with a leading scientist that has been voted one of the world's top ten intellectuals by various British and American magazines and who researches and writes on just about everything that makes up human existence – think "universal genius": Jared Diamond. He studied physiology at Harvard and Cambridge and became a leading expert on the gallbladder. He is also an ornithologist, anthropologist, sociologist, evolutionary biologist, ecologist, and environmental historian with expertise in archaeology, genetics, and human disease epidemiology. He is also a professor of geography in Los Angeles. And then he is also one of the most successful authors of popular science nonfiction. His works have been translated into some forty languages, and for the world bestseller "Guns, Germs, and Steel. The Fates of Human Societies" he was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1998. His other books include "Collapse. How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed", "The World until Yesterday" and his most recent work "Upheaval – How Nations Cope with Crisis and Change". For all that, Jared Diamond is not only a master of lab work and literature research, but he is and has been on the road himself all over the world (over thirty times in New Guinea alone), he is fluent in over a dozen languages ... So: more than enough material for a wide-ranging conversation about a unique scientific career – and about the world we live in. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Was können wir von den Stämmen im Regenwald von Neuguinea lernen? Welche sind die größten Gefahren, die heute der Menschheit und der Erde drohen, und wie lassen sie sich meistern? Das sind einige von vielen Fragen, denen wir uns in dieser Episode mit Jared Diamond widmen. Jared Diamond ist ein wissenschaftlicher Tausendsassa, den diverse britische und amerikanische Magazine zu einem der weltweit zehn wichtigsten Intellektuellen gewählt haben und der zu so ziemlich allem forscht und schreibt, was die menschliche Existenz ausmacht – Stichwort „Universalgenie“. Er studierte Physiologie in Harvard und Cambridge und wurde ein führender Experte für die Gallenblase. Er ist außerdem Ornithologe, Anthropologe, Soziologe, Evolutionsbiologe, Ökologe und Umwelthistoriker mit Fachkenntnissen in Archäologie, Genetik und Epidemiologie menschlicher Krankheiten. Zudem ist er Professor für Geografie in Los Angeles. Und dann ist er auch noch einer der erfolgreichsten Autoren populärwissenschaftlicher Sachbücher überhaupt. Seine Werke wurden in rund vierzig Sprachen übersetzt, für den Weltbestseller „Guns, Germs, and Steel. The Fates of Human Societies.“ – deutsche Ausgabe: „Arm und Reich – Die Schicksale menschlicher Gesellschaften“ wurde er 1998 mit dem Pulitzer Preis ausgezeichnet. Zu seinen anderen Büchern gehören „Kollaps. Warum Gesellschaften überleben oder untergehen“, „Vermächtnis: Was wir von traditionellen Gesellschaften lernen können“ und sein aktuelles Werk „Krise – Wie Nationen sich erneuern können“. Bei alledem ist Jared Diamond nicht nur ein Meister der Laborarbeit und Literaturrecherche, sondern er ist und war selbst unterwegs in der ganzen Welt (allein über dreißig Mal auf Neuguinea), er spricht über ein Dutzend Sprachen fließend … Also: Mehr als genug Stoff für ein facettenreiches Gespräch über eine einzigartige wissenschaftliche Karriere – und über die Welt, in der wir leben.

Life on earth has become irrevocably altered by humans. What can we do to acknowledge our impact on the earth and pave the way for a fairer, saner, greener world? Join 5x15 for this urgent and unmissable Penguin Classics series of Green Ideas special event with Jared Diamond who discusses his short book The Last Tree on Easter Island. The Last Tree on Easter Island is Jared Diamond's haunting account of visiting the mysterious stone statues of Easter Island. As the multi-award winning author and geographer proposes in his best-selling book, Collapse , Easter Island is the ‘clearest example of a society that destroyed itself by overexploiting its own resources.’ Diamond’s new book hones in on this theme with powerful brevity. In his exploration of how a remote civilization dismantled itself by exploiting its own natural resources he urges us to recognise why we must heed this warning for our own era. Penguin Green Ideas: The Last Tree on Easter Island is in the Penguin Classics series of Green Ideas ; twenty short books which bring you the ideas that have changed the way we think and talk about the living earth and together point the way to a fairer, saner, greener world. This Autumn 5x15 is working on a number of talks with the ground breaking authors from the Green Ideas series. Jared Diamond is a Professor of Geography at UCLA and a noted polymath whose books about human societies blend biology, geography, anthropology, linguistics and history.

Jared and Brian discuss the writing and reporting of Swing Kings in depth. Jared talks about the unlikely role that Marlon Byrd played in his career, turning a good news paper story into a bool, and what a book proposal looks like and why it was so critical to his process, and why you always take the meeting.
