Sponsored by the IHC’s Critical Mass series, Jared Diamond will give a talk titled “Nations in Crisis, People in Crisis: Connecting Upheaval” on January 15th from 7-9 p.m. at Corwin Pavilion. Diamond is a professor of geography at UCLA and the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Guns, Germs, and Steel, Collapse, and other books. By drawing on the factors that counselors and psychotherapists have identified that affect the likelihood of overcoming personal crisis, Diamond will examine the extent to which crisis response on the individual scale helps us to understand the outcomes of recent and impending national and world crises. Copies of Diamond's books will be available for purchase and signing.
