Key figures like Oda Nobunaga, Tokugawa Ieyasu, and ...

"La Révolution française a été la revendication des droits de l'humanité outragée ; elle a été le combat terrible et légitime de la justice contre l'iniquité. Nous entreprenons de retracer ici rapidement, mais sans rien omettre d'essentiel, les faits qui se sont produits depuis l'avènement de Louis XVI jusqu'au coup d'État du 18 brumaire." Se lisant comme un roman, cet ouvrage, aussi bref que fascinant, permet de mieux saisir la chronologie de ces évènements qui ont marqué l'histoire de la France et de l'Occident tout entier.

Here, anthropologist David Graeber presents a stunning reversal of conventional wisdom: He shows that before there was money, there was debt. For more than 5,000 years, since the beginnings of the first agrarian empires, humans have used elaborate credit systems to buy and sell goods - that is, long before the invention of coins or cash. It is in this era, Graeber argues, that we also first encounter a society divided into debtors and creditors.

And it was the most technologically advanced of the ancient civilizations, with the medical knowledge that made Egyptian physicians the most famous in the world.

In the tradition of Jared Diamond and Jacques Barzun, prize-winning historian Anthony Pagden presents a sweeping history of the long struggle between East and West, from the Greeks to the present day.

The relationship between East and West has always been one of turmoil. In this historical tour de force, a renowned historian leads us from the world of classical antiquity, through the Dark Ages, to the Crusades, Europe's resurgence, and the dominance of the Ottoman Empire, which almost shattered Europe entirely. Pagden travels from Napoleon in Egypt to Europe's carving up of the finally moribund Ottomans - creating the modern Middle East along the way - and on to the present struggles in Iraq.

A masterful analysis of technology and culture, Leonardo to the Internet frames a history that illuminates modern-day problems and prospects of a technology-dependent world.
