Specificatii
Western civilization's rise to global dominance is the single most
important historical phenomenon of the past five centuries. How did
the West overtake its Eastern rivals? And has the zenith of Western
power now passed? Acclaimed historian Niall Ferguson argues that
beginning in the fifteenth century, the West developed six powerful
new concepts, or killer applications--competition, science, the
rule of law, modern medicine, consumerism, and the work ethic--that
the Rest lacked, allowing it to surge past all other competitors.
Yet now, Ferguson shows how the Rest have downloaded the killer
apps the West once monopolized, while the West has literally lost
faith in itself. Chronicling the rise and fall of empires alongside
clashes (and fusions) of civilizations, Civilization: The West and
the Rest recasts world history with force and wit. Boldly argued
and teeming with memorable characters, this is Ferguson at his very
best. Niall Ferguson's new book The Square and the Tower: Networks
and Power, from the Freemasons to Facebook will be published in
January 2018.
