So you think you know what makes the world go round? Read about the
ideas that revolutionized the 20th century. The twentieth century
was a period of seismic change on a global scale, witnessing two
world wars, the rise and fall of communism, the establishment of a
global economy, the beginnings of global warming and a complete
reversal in the status of women in large parts of the world. Many
of these changes were brought about thanks to powerful ideologies -
big ideas that irrevocably altered the way humans viewed their
world. Short Histories of Big Ideas are brief, easy to understand
introductions to the ideologies that shaped the twentieth century.
Each volume explains the key aspects of an idea and provides a
concise history of its growth and influence on our world
perspective. Has communism shaped the contemporary world? The
twentieth century cannot be properly understood unless we
understand communism: its origins, growth, demise and legacy.
