Atomic Habits • James Clear“ Food production, and competition and diffusion between societies, led as ultimate causes ... of conquest. ”
Guns, Germs And Steel • Jared Diamond, Ph.D. (UCLA)“Optimism is not only a false but also a pernicious doctrine, for it presents life as a desirable state and man's happiness as its aim and object. Starting from this, everyone then believes he has the most legitimate claim to happiness and enjoyment.
