Currently reading Guns, Germs, and Steel. I'm about a third of the way through, and so far it's pretty interesting. I've heard a few people complain that the arguments the author puts forward are "racist" but I can only assume that those people haven't actually read the book.

What book explain the reason and general signs and patterns of the rise and fall of empires or nations?
I hear pic related is quite good but most threads on /lit/ talking about it usually say the opposite.
So what other books are there?
