Product Description
Based on the latest scientific findings, this breakthrough book argues that most of what we thought we knew about the Americas before Columbus was wrong.
In the last 20 years, archaeologists and anthropologists equipped with new scientific techniques have made far-reaching discoveries about the Americas. For example, Indians did not cross the Bering Strait 12,000 years ago, as most of us learned in school. They were already here. Their numbers were vast, not few. And instead of living lightly on the land, they managed it beautifully and left behind an enormous ecological legacy.
In this riveting, accessible work of science, Charles Mann takes us on an enthralling journey of scientific exploration. We learn that the Indian development of modern corn was one of the most complex feats of genetic engineering ever performed. That the Great Plains are a third smaller today than they were in 1700 because the Indians who maintained them by burning died. And that the Amazon rain forest may be largely a human artifact.
Compelling and eye-opening, this book has the potential to vastly alter our understanding of our history and change the course of today's environmental disputes.

好书,力荐
评分Charles C. Mann,他的著作不約而同的在華文世界登場,分別是本書《1491》跟衛城出的《1493》,都是講述美洲的故事,以哥倫布的到來為基準點講“之前”與“以後”的歷史。 我個人覺得比較可惜的是,衛城沒有選本書而是選了《1493》,這本當初我覺得跟《哥倫布大交換》重疊性會...

评分得到听书: 首先,咱们说到美洲大陆在哥伦布到来之前,并不是一个荒凉原始、人烟稀少的地方。在15世纪时这里人口众多,远超同时期的欧洲,人口密度最大的地方,甚至是中国和印度的两倍。只是由于欧洲人的到来,带来了美洲人从未遭遇过、毫无免疫力的病毒,才使得美洲人口锐减。...
