This is Paul Johnson's most important world history work. The book is 1,200 pages thick and is divided into 20 chapters. It starts with the introduction of the "theory of relativity", an epoch-making event of the scientific revolution, and contains a deep sense of criticism and suspicion from the beginning. It can be said that the history of the 20th century that we are most familiar with so far often presents a different aspect in his writing, such as a new understanding of the theory of relativity and its proposers, contributors, and followers, as well as his reinterpretation of many so-called "major historical events" and so on.
