While I don't think the book necessarily answered its question, it is very well researched and very informative if your knowledge of the late Bronze Age is limited.

An up-to-date and well written look at what the academic world has discovered about the fall of civilizations in the Late Bronze Age. Covering everything from the invasions of the Sea Peoples, natural disasters, trade disputes and slave revolts, the author takes a balanced and logical approach to the reasons for the collapse. It is a great book for any student of history.
