Why The West Rules - For Now: The Patterns of History and what they reveal about the Future by Ian Morris

challenging informative slow-paced

3.5

I started this book 1 Jan 2022.. I just finished it on the 18th August 2024. THIS WAS SUCH A LONG READ - THANK GOODNESS FOR THE GRAPHS AND TABLES BUT OH MY GOODNESS. It was a good and insightful book but at some parts could be extremely monotone (tho, to be fair, I'm a qualitative person and not a quantitative).

I'm not picking up this book for another 40 years :)) - also be prepared for the "all is doomed" final chapter BECAUSE I WAS NOT.
