Third supplemented edition. ... The purpose I pursue with this book is to compare the information that has come down to us from old writers and to draw some conclusions about the people who spread the Bulgarian state to the Balkans, without resorting to the numerous contemporary books that I have read and that fill my library.

Но къде парите и политиката се срещат? Нийл Фъргюсън прави впечатляващ анализ на еволюцията на икономиката и политиката от 1700 г. до наши дни. По блестящ начин показва, че историята е управлявана далеч не само от мотива за печалба, а и от мощни и често противоречиви човешки импулси като секс, насилие и желание за власт. "Фъргюсън е един от най-успешните историци, пишещи днес... "Пари и власт..." предлага съществен коректив ... |
