Book excerpt: "[...] History on the other hand jumps from "a" to "z" and then back to "f" and next to "m" without any apparent respect for neatness and order. There is a good reason for this. History is not exactly a science. It tells the story of the human race and most people, however much we may try to change their nature, refuse to behave with the regularity and the precision of the tables of multiplication.[...]".

Download or read book The Dawn of Everything written by David Graeber and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2021-11-09 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER A dramatically new understanding of human history, challenging our most fundamental assumptions about social evolution—from the development of agriculture and cities to the origins of the state, democracy, and inequality—and revealing new possibilities for human emancipation. For generations, our remote ancestors have been cast as primitive and childlike—either free and equal innocents, or thuggish and warlike. Civilization, we are told, could be achieved only by sacrificing those original freedoms or, alternatively, by taming our baser instincts. David Graeber and David Wengrow show how such theories first emerged in the eighteenth century as a conservative reaction to powerful critiques of European society posed by Indigenous observers and intellectuals. Revisiting this encounter has startling implications for how we make sense of human history today, including the origins of farming, property, cities, democracy, slavery, and civilization itself. Drawing on pathbreaking research in archaeology and anthropology, the authors show how history becomes a far more interesting place once we learn to throw off our conceptual shackles and perceive what’s really there. If humans did not spend 95 percent of their evolutionary past in tiny bands of hunter-gatherers, what were they doing all that time? If agriculture, and cities, did not mean a plunge into hierarchy and domination, then what kinds of social and economic organization did they lead to? The answers are often unexpected, and suggest that the course of human history may be less set in stone, and more full of playful, hopeful possibilities, than we tend to assume. The Dawn of Everything fundamentally transforms our understanding of the human past and offers a path toward imagining new forms of freedom, new ways of organizing society. This is a monumental book of formidable intellectual range, animated by curiosity, moral vision, and a faith in the power of direct action. Includes Black-and-White Illustrations

Download or read book Ancient Man written by Hendrik Willem van Loon and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ancient Man Volume One. Ancient Man describes the earliest development of civilization along the banks of the Nile and the Mediterranean and in the fertile valley of Mesopotamia. Volume Two - explains the origin and growth of the Classical World of Greece (which organised our ideas and systematised our science), and of Rome (which gave us the foundations for all our future experiments in state-craft). Volume Three - entitled The Middle Ages is the story of the invasion of Europe by savage tribes from Central Asia. It shows their wanderings across the western part of the old continent and tells you how they settled down amidst the ruins of that selfsame Roman Empire which they had just destroyed and how they used the Roman civilization as the foundation for their own culture. Volume Four - the Rebirth Of Civilization gives an account of those enthusiastic centuries which followed the turmoil of the Middle Ages when man suddenly discovered the literary, artistic and scientific inheritance of Greece and Rome which lay buried beneath the wreckage of the great migrations and awaited only the hand of the intellectual pioneer to be brought back to life. Volume Five. The Conquest Of New Worlds shows the people of Europe, outgrowing the narrow boundaries of the medieval state, and venturing forth to discover what might be hiding from their curious gaze behind the distant horizon. Volume Six. The Conquest Of Knowledge, tells of the even more perilous voyage which man undertook into the uncharted realm of knowledge. Volume Seven - called The Beginning Of Freedom, shows the new type of man who believes himself master of the visible world and who now insists that he must be allowed to direct his own affairs in his own way and for his own benefit. This is followed by Volume Eight - The Age Of Invention when man makes a fierce onslaught upon the hidden laws of nature and forces his old enemy to work for him as an obedient and faithful slave. Finally, in Volume Nine - The World Of Today, we take stock of everything that has happened during the last five thousand years and try to show where the human race has lived up to its highest possible achievements and wherein it has failed to rise above the status of the earliest cave-man.
