About this product

Product Information

This book is the culmination of 15 years of research and travels that have taken the author completely around the world twice, as well as on other travels in the Mediterranean, the Baltic, and around the Pacific rim. Its purpose has been to try to understand the role of cultural differences within nations and between nations, today and over centuries of history, in shaping the economic and social fates of peoples and of whole civilizations. Focusing on four major cultural areas(that of the British, the Africans (including the African diaspora), the Slavs of Eastern Europe, and the indigenous peoples of the Western Hemisphere-- Conquests and Cultures reveals patterns that encompass not only these peoples but others and help explain the role of cultural evolution in economic, social, and political development.

    Excellent

    Part of a three book set, hard to find. Class is Thomas So well! Man is a national treasure! Takes completed subjects and brings them done into a common sense easy to grasp format.

    Conquests and Cultures, by Thomas Sowell

    I bought it because I have enjoyed several of Mr. Sowell's books. This one is the third volume in a trilogy studying the impact of various human activities on cultures around the world. His conclusion that "human capital" has a far greater impact than genetics or colonialism on the advancement, or decline, of different societies is persuasively supported. I'm looking forward to reading the earlier volumes, Race & Culture and Migrations & Culture, which I have, but have so far neglected to read. Curtiss Ryan Mooney Vancouver, WA mooneycr53@hotmail.com
