Makers of the Modern World is to be welcomed because it is designed to provide concise biographies, around 200 pages long, of major politicians and intellectuals from all over the world. All of them are also put into the larger context of the age and the often momentous decisions that they were involved in. --V.R. Berghahn H-Diplo
