It was on the Silk Roads that East and West first encountered each other through trade and conquest, leading to the spread of ideas, cultures, and religions, and it was the appetites for foreign goods that drove economies and the growth of nations. From the first cities in Mesopotamia to the emergence of Greece and Rome to the depredations by the Mongols, the transmission of the Black Death, the struggles of the Great Game, and the fall of Communism - the fate of the West has always been inextricably linked to the East.

A masterpiece spanning centuries of intrigue!
Revisado: 01-06-17
A vast traversal through history covering the rising, falling & changing of nations. A great read for those particularly starved of a conclusive history of the ages. Of particular interest was the USA's role in the Middle East in the 70s & the ramifications leading to the terrorism crisis today. A good insight into the treachery of politics.

Nothing you don't already know

Who do you think would benefit most from listening to Word of Mouth Marketing: How Smart Companies Get People Talking?
Worth the listen if you are in marketing - it's always good to let tips and tactics seep deeper into your subconscious, but the book is neither riveting nor profound by any means.

Two men, each handsome and unusually adept at his chosen work, embodied an element of the great dynamic that characterized America’s rush toward the twentieth century. The architect was Daniel Hudson Burnham, the fair’s brilliant director of works and the builder of many of the country’s most important structures, including the Flatiron Building in New York and Union Station in Washington, D.C. The murderer was Henry H. Holmes, a young doctor who, in a malign parody of the White City, built his “World’s Fair Hotel” just west of the fairgrounds.
