The forces of freedom are challenged everywhere by a newly
energized spirit of tyranny, whether it is Jihadist terrorism,
Putin's imperialism, or the ambitions of China's dictatorship,
writes Waller R. Newell in this engaging exposé of a thousand
dangers. We will see why tyranny is a permanent threat by following
its strange career from Homeric Bronze Age warriors, through the
empires of Alexander the Great and Rome, to the medieval struggle
between the City of God and the City of Man, leading to the
state-building despots of the Modern Age including the Tudors and
'enlightened despots' such as Peter the Great. The book explores
the psychology of tyranny from Nero to Gaddafi, and how it changes
with the Jacobin Terror into millenarian revolution. Stimulating
and enlightening, Tyrants: Power, Injustice, and Terror will appeal
to anyone interested in the danger posed by tyranny and terror in
today's world.
