Following Rivers of Gold & The Golden Age World Without End is the conclusion of a magisterial three-volume history of the Spanish Empire by Hugh Thomas its foremost worldwide authority World Without End is the climax of Hugh Thomas's great history of the Spanish Empire in the Americas It describes the conquest of Paraguay & the River Plate of the Yucatan in Mexico the only partial conquest of Chile & battles with the French over Florida & then in the 1580s the extraordinary projection of Spanish power across the Pacific to conquer the Philippines More significantly it describes how the Spanish ran the greatest empire the world had seen since Rome
- as well as conquistadores the book is people with viceroys judges nobles bishops inquisitors & administrators of many different kinds often in conflict with one another seeking to organise the native populations into towns to build cathedrals hospitals & universities Behind them
- sometimes ahead of them
- came the religious orders the Franciscans Dominicans Augustinians & finally the Jesuits builders of convents & monasteries many of them of astonishing beauty & reminders of the pervasiveness of religion & the self-confidence of the age Towering above them all though moving rarely from the palace of the Escorial outside Madrid is the figure of King Philip II the central figure in the book The Venetian ambassador thought him 'the arbiter of the world' Once the Philippines had been consolidated Philip's advisors contemplated an invasion of China the Jesuit Father Sanchez called it 'the greatest enterprise which has ever been proposed to any monarch in the world' It was an enterprise never undertaken but never explicitly abandoned Was it a great or a terrible empire? In contrast to other empire builders the Spaniards entered upon arguments with each other about their right to rule other peoples & their ruthlessness was often tempered by humanity Hugh Thomas's conclusion is unequivocal ' The speed with which the sixteenth-century conquistadores conquered such large territories on two vast continents & the comparable success of missionaries with large populations of Indians stands as one of the supreme epics of both valour & imagination by Europeans'

Over the past few decades there has been a revolution in terms of who controls knowledge & information This rapid change has imperilled the way we think Without pausing to consider the cost the world has rushed to embrace the products & services of four titanic corporations We shop with Amazon; socialise on Facebook; turn to Apple for entertainment; & rely on Google for information These firms sell their efficiency & purport to make the world a better place but what they have done instead is to enable an intoxicating level of daily convenience As these companies have expanded marketing themselves as champions of individuality & pluralism their algorithms have pressed us into conformity & laid waste to privacy They have produced an unstable & narrow culture of misinformation & put us on a path to a world without private contemplation autonomous thought or solitary introspection
- a world without mind In order to restore our inner lives we must avoid being co-opted by these gigantic companies & understand the ideas that underpin their success Elegantly tracing the intellectual history of computer science
- from the Descartes & the enlightenment to Alan Turing to Stuart Brand & the hippie origins of today's Silicon Valley
- Foer exposes the dark underpinnings of our most idealistic dreams for technology The corporate ambitions of Google Facebook Apple & Amazon he argues are trampling longstanding liberal values especially intellectual property & privacy This is a nascent stage in the total automation & homogenization of social political & intellectual life By reclaiming our private authority over how we intellectually engage with the world we have the power to stem the tide At stake is nothing less than who we are & what we will become There have been monopolists in the past but today's corporate giants have far more nefarious aims They're monopolists who want access to every facet of our identities & influence over every corner of our decision-making Until now few have grasped the sheer scale of the threat Foer explains not just the looming existential crisis but the imperative of resistance
