Dr. Diamond, physiologist at the UCLA Medical School and author of the best selling The Third Chimpanzee and Guns, Germs, and Steel, presents his controversial theory that it was language that triggered the “Great Leap Forward” about 35,000 years ago that led to human culture and set us apart from Neanderthals, who went extinct shortly thereafter.
