Descrizione

The world’s history is a history of global events. Events which shaped the making of the present. If you want to understand the present, you need to study history and to study it in depth, sorry. This book is about the making of today. It is a compelling narrative of the origins of all what worries our present: instability, disequilibrium, fear, and uncertainty. It is the narrative of the fragility, but also of the strength of modern civilization, so great and so scary, so fascinating and so repulsive.
