A review by dithorba
A People's History of the World: From the Stone Age to the New Millennium by Chris Harman

informative reflective slow-paced

3.0

I think this book is okay. It certainly is ambitious but there are a number of assessments that make it clear the author has a mostly workable laymen understanding of many historical periods, and uttterly underdeveloped in others. 

It also quotes and takes for granted the conclusion of Jared Diamond (my beloathed) so that is an immediate -1 star.
