Guns, Germs And Steel

Производитель: "Vintage"

This book answers the most obvious, the most important, yet the most difficult, question about human history: why history unfolded so differently on different continents. Geography and biogeography, not race, moulded the contrasting fates of Europeans, Asians, Native Americans, sub-Saharan Africans, and aboriginal Australians.

Jared is a proper name that is very common first name (in various Western countries) of Biblical derivation, etymologically from the Hebrew language, and one of the names by which Moses was known. Translated it means "descent" derived from Miriam who had "descended to the Nile" to find out what happened to her brother. In the Hebrew it is written ירד / יֶרֶד / יָרֶד, pronounced yĕyā́-rĕḏ. When transliterated into the English language, variations include Jared / Jaryd / Jarod / Jered / Jerad / Jurd (among other variations), being generally pronounced as dʒĕ-rĕd əd; according to classic Biblical pronunciation (denoted by syllabic stress accenting) it can be rendered dʒādʒē-rĕd. The name can be phonetically transcribed from Hebrew to English as Yared(h) / Yered(h) / Yored(h).
