About This Novel
This is a set of masterpieces on the history of human civilization spanning tens of thousands of years, covering the conflict and evolution of Eastern and Western civilizations, the history of the geographical world, the history of human wars, the evolution of values, the history of ancient Greek civilization, etc. The author of "How Long Will the West Dominate" uses the original "Social Development Index" measurement standard to discuss the fundamental reasons why the West has dominated the world so far, and boldly predicts how the East will catch up with the West and take over the world's leading flag in the next 100 years. "The Measure of Civilization" is the sequel to "How Long Will the West Dominate". The author comprehensively introduces what his original "Social Development Index" is and how civilization can be measured using numbers. "War" is a 15,000-year history of human war. Through the wonderful presentation of major historical battles, military revolutions, and the logic of the birth of Leviathan, it objectively analyzes and reveals the powerful role of war in promoting the integration and evolution of civilizations. "Historical Bias" reveals the complex changes in human values in the process of human beings going through a foraging society, an agricultural society, and a fossil fuel society. It provides readers with a unique perspective to understand the values of the past era and understand multiple values. "Geography is Destiny" uses ten thousand years as a scale and Britain as a dot to radiate world history and provide insight into how geographical factors determine the rise and fall of countries and the change of world order. It is a representative work of the author's geographical determinism. "The Greeks" is a complete history of ancient Greece spanning ten thousand years. Diamond, author of "Guns, Germs and Steel," praised: "Ian Morris has established himself as a leader in the interest and popularity of big historical works."
