The Rise of the West is famous for its ambitious scope and intellectual rigor. In it, McNeill challenges the Spengler-Toynbee view that a number of separate civilizations pursued essentially independent careers, and argues instead that human cultures interacted at every stage of their history. The author suggests that, from the Neolithic beginnings of grain agriculture to the present, major social changes in all parts of the world were triggered by new or newly important foreign stimuli, and he presents a persuasive narrative of world history to support this claim.

De Oostenrijkse filosoof Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889-1951) is zonder enige twijfel één van de belangrijkste filosofen van de twintigste eeuw. Zijn denken heeft een grote bijdrage geleverd aan de filosofie van de taal, de wiskunde en de geest alsook aan de grondslagen van de logica. Door de een werd hij bewonderd, door de ander verguisd. Dat maakt hem tot een interessant onderwerp, zowel binnen als buiten de filosofie. Op toegankelijke en humoristische wijze behandelt Jean Paul Van Bendegem de biografie van Wittgenstein en biedt hij een diepere analyse van zijn twee bekendste werken.

Most, but not everyone.

Beyond the sainted Rembrandt—who harbored a startling darkness—and the mysterious Vermeer, whose true subject, it turned out, was lurking in plain sight, Moser got to know a whole galaxy of geniuses: the doomed virtuoso Carel Fabritius, the anguished wunderkind Jan Lievens, the deaf prodigy Hendrik Avercamp.
