9781681775470: Millennium – From Religion to Revolution: How Civilization Has Changed Over a Thousand Years

Synopsis


We journey from a time when there was a fair chance of your village being burned to the ground by invaders -- and dried human dung was a recommended cure for cancer -- to a world in which explorers sailed into the unknown and civilizations came into conflict with each other on an epic scale. Here is a story of godly scientists, fearless adventurers, cold-hearted entrepreneurs, and strong-minded women -- a story of discovery, invention, revolution, and cataclysmic shifts in perspective.

Millennium is a journey into the past like no other. Our understanding of human development will never be the same again, and the lessons we learn along the way are profound ones for us all.

Review

A quirky but always delightful social history that will convince most readers that social revolutions have been happening for a long time.

I loved this book. It will enable you to understand your past, your place in it and that of your ancestors as never before. A modern classic.

An ambitious study of the last millennium.

Provocative and enjoyable. Almost every page of this engaging book sets your mind racing.--Dominic Sandbrook

Original and fascinating. Mortimer is an entertaining guide on this superb time-travel journey of human innovations It is a planetary ride which Mortimer offers us in his tour of ten centuries. It is exhilarating to time-travel with him.
