So, as part of my Sustainability and Resilience in History course, we have to read two books:
Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed by Jarrod Diamond and Something New Under the Sun by John Robert McNeill.
While I am not a fan of teachers requiring certain books to be read as part of their coursework, I finally figured out the best way to do so...supplemental video resources. Namely, CrashCourse World History 2 and Big History and The Ascent of Money: A Financial History of The World by Niall Ferguson.
