Diamond, for the most part, writes in an accessible manner, particularly given the complex topic of his work. Although the book does contain some technical information, Diamond uses definitions, examples, and simple language to explain very complex topics, such as how microbes evolve over time. He appears to be targeting a popular audience in addition to an academic audience, and uses these techniques to make the topic accessible and fast paced. Overall, the book contains little technical jargon and does not use strong, violent or vulgar language.
