WHC: Guns, Germs, and Steel has become among the favorites of world history teachers at the high school level. I've heard that this success surprised you.

DIAMOND: It has surprised me, because I never thought that it would be read in schools. I assumed it was too complicated. In fact, the first hint that it was getting into schools was when my sons Max and Joshua came home, and they were angry. They said "Daddy, why did you do these bad things to us? 

We've been assigned this chapter from your book, and we haven't read it yet, but we know it's a bad book, and we know it's difficult." That was in 7th grade. So they read it. I didn't know whether they had digested it or understood it. So Max came in and said, "Daddy, the chapter is boring, and the beginning of the chapter is really weak." At that point I knew that he had read it because, of all the chapters, I think that is the most boring one and has the weakest beginning.

KRISTEN STEGEMOELLER: What do you feel

about the reception of Guns, Germs and Steel? What do you think about James Blaut's criticism of your work [in Eight Eurocentric Historians]? He claims you ignore the social aspects of culture in favor of environmental determinism. Do you think Guns, Germs, and Steel was misunderstood?
