How the World Got Modern (Cato Unbound Book 112009) (English Edition)

In this month's Cato Unbound we'll explore some of the biggest of big questions: How did the world get modern, and what does it mean? At the top of the lineup we have a lead essay by historian Stephen Davies, author of Empiricism and History. Commenting on Davies' lead essay we'll have George Mason's Jack Goldstone, author of Why Europe? The Rise of the West in World History 1500-1850; UCLA's Anthony Pagden, author of Peoples and Empires: Europeans and the Rest of the World, from Antiquity to the Present; and Cato Unbound's own resident intellectual historian, Jason Kuznicki.
