Takeover: How Euroman Changed the World Arthur H. Niehoff

This is a popular history book of the most significant event to most peoples of the world since the rise of cities. It tells in a science fiction format how humankind became the dominant species and how European Man became dominant over other humans. It is the legacy of Columbus and the other European explorers. The book is a dialogue between one of the last surviving anthropologists and a computer named Mary who works for the new conquerors of the Earth. Their interchange draws a parallel between extra-terrestrial invaders and European man who invaded the rest of the earth after 1492. Though based on a lifetime of study and teaching by Arthur Niehoff, anthropologist, the book has been written as popular history.
