ISBN:  0143057189 (Penguin Audio) Description:  8 sound discs (9.5 hrs.) : digital ; 4 3/4 in. Requests:  0 Summary:  Moving from the Polynesian cultures on Easter Island to the flourishing American civilizations of the Anasazi and the Maya and finally to the doomed Viking colony on Greenland, Diamond traces the fundamental pattern of catastrophe. Environmental damage, climate change, rapid population growth, and unwise political choices were all factors in the demise of these societies, but other societies found solutions and persisted. Similar problems face us today and have already brought disaster to Rwanda and Haiti, even as China and Australia are trying to cope in innovative ways. Despite our own society's apparently inexhaustible wealth and unrivaled political power, ominous warning signs have begun to emerge even in ecologically robust areas like Montana.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Kalihi-Palama Public Library CD -- Compact Disc CD-NF [Audiobook] Checked In Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library CD -- Compact Disc CD 304.28 Di ABK Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library CD -- Compact Disc CD ANF Diamond   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library CD -- Compact Disc CD #2374/Spoken/NonMusical Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mountain View P/S Library CD -- Compact Disc CD 304.28 Di BK ON CD Checked In Add Copy to MyList Thelma Parker Memorial P/S Library CD -- Compact Disc CD 304.28 Di   Checked In Add Copy to MyList
