国际间经济差异
贾瑞德戴蒙得在他的著名作品《枪炮，钢铁，病菌》主要探讨了一个问题：人类社会发展不平均的根源何在。在前现代社会，为什么有的社会进入了文明社会已经上千年，而有的社会仍然在刀耕火种的原始阶段？戴蒙得发现，自然禀赋的差异是造成社会发展差异的最主要原因。他的许多观点令人耳目一新，比如可驯化的粮食植物、家禽以及牧畜的自然分布直接决定了早期农业社会的生产效率也就决定了农业社会的经济差异。

相互依赖
是什么原因让我们选择继续一段关系？又是什么让我们决定终止它？我们选择继续仅仅是因为感到开心和幸福，选择结束是因为感到痛苦吗？稍加思考就会明白，幸福感不是我们选择的唯一因素。比如如果出现了一个可能给你更大幸福和满足感的人，你会选择结束当前的关系吗？你也许会进行一番比较和衡量，会考虑离开现在的伴侣索要承受的感情伤害，甚至会思考这样做是不是合乎道德。
