The New York Times bestseller' Silicon Valley needed a history lesson & Ferguson has provided it' Eric Schmidt What if everything we thought we knew about history was wrong? From Niall Ferguson the global bestselling author of Empire The Ascent of Money & Civilization this is a whole new way of imagining the world Most history is hierarchical it's about popes presidents & prime ministers But what if that's simply because they create the historical archives? What if we are missing equally powerful but less visible networks
- leaving them to the conspiracy theorists with their dreams of all-powerful Illuminati?
