From Conservapedia
Dr. Jared M. Diamond is a Professor of Geography, Environmental Health Sciences, and Physiology at UCLA.
He was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1998 for his book Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies, which explores why European culture came to dominate the world, while discrediting previous racist theories.
He was awarded the President's National Medal of Science in 1999 "for his exceptionally creative scholarship, including seminal research in physiology, ecology, conservation biology, and history; for his outstanding role in communicating science by explaining technical advances in widely understandable terms, and for his overwhelming dedication to science's role in building a better future."[1]
