Take a look at the criticism of his tale about Easter Island for a good look into how he basically peddles facil bs.
I tend to leave criticism to critics. They're more interested in claiming accomplishment on works that have been done than actually doing work themselves.

I don't take anything that I read as gospel. But I know when I've gotten good information from something.

I found Guns, Germs and Steel enlightening in a lot of different ways.
