The World Until Yesterday: What Can We Learn from Traditional Societies?

The book covers a wide range of topics from conflict resolution to child-rearing. I'm curious how he chose which practices to focus on and why.

Some practices seem beneficial while others might be impractical or controversial today. What are others' thoughts on applying these lessons?

The comparisons felt both insightful and provocative, making me wonder what motivated him to explore these parallels and contrasts.
