The book starts off with a nice anecdote on who would you want to meet from the past. Won’t tell you Will Durant’s choice but a good one. Well done.
The book is a collection of essays on his opinion and list..clearly not encompassing..even invention of zero does not get classified as a great idea. But good read getting together stuff we know into readable quick reference.
very small, could read it in an hour. Probably need a closer read that may take a couple more
