Diamond, Jared, (author.). Snyder, Jay, (reader.). hoopla digital. (Added Author). Read by Jay Snyder. (Cast).

Summary:

In The World Until Yesterday, Jared Diamond holds a mirror up to modern society by examining traditional cultures such as the New Guinea Highlanders, the Inuit, and the Amazonian Indians. In a relatively short time, these cultures have largely disappeared, but Diamond believes they may still offer humanity lessons on how to live and survive as societies grow and evolve.
