The authors devoted five decades to the study of world history and philosophy, culminating in the masterful 11-volume Story of Civilization. In this compact summation of their work, Will and Ariel Durant share the vital and profound lessons of our collective past. Their perspective, gained after a lifetime of thinking and writing about the history of humankind, is an invaluable resource for us today.

Not my cup of tea
Revisado: 03-30-24
While the author attempts to look at things in an unbiased way, this is indeed a bias in itself. I had to force myself to finish it. I did like the conversations. He is a lot more likeable in conversation than on the page. I hate titles with musical elements in the narration.

At the start of this riveting memoir, Dan Conway is a brash young executive in a vast corporation, slogging his way up the ladder while struggling with depression and an addiction he thought he had defeated long ago. As he begins to realize that the mix of nightmarish bureaucracy and his unruly “flip side” have doomed any chance of success, Dan stumbles upon cryptocurrency, tumbling down the rabbit hole to discover a strange, anarchic, but captivating world. He decides to wager everything - his savings, his marriage, his family, his future - on the fledgling crypto, Ether.

Necessary, but vulgar?
Revisado: 02-14-21
My only negative comment about Dan's book is his use of profanity. I don't think that it's necessary. While said profanity may describe and emphasize where he's coming from, it just isn't the best way to communicate such. It's a shortcut device that may turn people away. Those who do stay are rewarded with some wisdom herein.. This is a worthwhile investment of your time, assuming that a little profanity doesn't upset you. I accepted his use of profanity at the start. If you're reading this, you have been warned.
