Though I am biased to the Agricultural Revolution, mainly because my entire life has been a a result of it, I have to agree with Jared Diamond's points. Life may have been simpler in the Neolithic life style, with less art and infrastructure, it was also healthier, led to less gender inequality, they also did not "ruin" the land. As Jared Diamond says last night, agricultural lifestyle created "a class of social parasites who grow fat on food seized from others"
