À propos de cet audio

 Best-selling historian and philosopher Will Durant devoted his entire life to studying the most significant eras, individuals, and achievements of human history. Here is a summation of Durant's work, as he presents the best of world history, from "The One Hundred Best Books for an Education" to "The Ten Greatest Thinkers," "The Ten Greatest Poets," "The Ten Peaks of Human Progress," and "Twelve Vital Dates in Human History." Filled with Durant's renowned wit, knowledge, and unique ability to explain events in simple and exciting terms, it is a concise liberal arts education.©2003 John Little and the Estate of Will Durant; 2002 John Little, Monica Ariel Mihell, and William James Durant Easton (P)2003 The Audio Partners Publishing Corp.

Amazing analysis of the nature and the evolution of humankind. A positive perspective exploring and summarizing what we were, what we are, and the hope for what is possible.

Our shortcomings aside, we remain a jewel in this univers.

Although there’s valid reasoning behind the inclusions, they are clearly limited to a vastly western cultural perspective focused almost entirely around white males of European decent.

The bias is cringe-worthy

the writer claims that his lists are universal by few mentions here and there ! ..... the book is from a westren (young) prospective neglecting massive cultures and contributions of Asia, middle east and Africa !
