¿Por qué determinadas civilizaciones sobreviven y se imponen, mientras que otras acaban desapareciendo? A partir de estudios de varios casos concretos de sociedades pasadas y presentes, Diamond describe con gran rigor y amenidad los principales problemas a que se exponen las sociedades actuales; tanto en él ámbito medioambientalcomo en los aspectos sociales y culturales. La globalización, con sus grandezas y sus miserias, plantea grandes desafíos que el autor afronta con sagacidad, espíritu crítico y optimismo.
