The world could have been a different place if it weren’t for certain people or events that changed the course of history. This set of two explores this idea.
People Who Changed The World explores the lives and careers of some fascinating individuals from ancient figures such as Alexander the Great to modern icons like Bill Gates. Some changed the world for the better, such as Pasteur, or for the worse, like Hitler, Mao and Bin Laden.
Events That Changed The World contains both positive and negative events, the only criterion is that they altered the passage of human life forever, like Marco Polo’s visit to China, and September 11, 2001. The result is a dynamic book crammed full of action, teamed with analysis and reflection.
