This massive book provides a detailed world history beginning with the industrial revolution and imperialism through two world wars, a global depression and the rise of communism. Learn how the Anglo-American banking elite were able to secretly establish and maintain their global power. Universal Empire seems like where the idea of New World Order must have come from.UNCENSORED! Tragedy & Hope: A History of the World in Our Time by Carroll Quigley is the ultimate insider admission of a secret global elite that has impacted nearly every modern historical event. People should read this, as it is almost prophetic - especially the part about the age of expansion leading to the age of conflict(where the "west" is today), and then if society isn't reorganized, to the age of Universial Empire - which some of our elite seem really wanting to bring about as soon as they can, no matter destructive it is to others. Update: After getting further into this, I can't understand why Mr Quigley isn't more well known.
I bet as I get further into the book, I'll see why so many find this book prescient, and maybe then I'll write a proper review. The person who writes the intro to this (comes with this particular download version)seems to indicate this, but I don't want to give too much away for those who haven't read it or even gotten as far into it as I have. My guess is the book is going to describe a world that looks more like today than even the period he's covering, as they drive living standars into tthe 19th century at home - while continuing the empire plan abroad. And there were these efforts to raise living standards through things like the "Great Society" even while the US empire policy was really the same.But that assumption was unimpressive to me - although I'm writing in 2011, so that really isn't far to Mr. Of course, this was in the very early stages of Vietnam, and I'm sure it did probably look as he describes to many at that moment. The one thing that stopped me in my tracks, was when in the intro he talks about the "Cold War" being over by 1964 (the year he ends his account), and the idea that now a bunch of liberals were going to hold hands and solve social problems.
He seems to be more well known on the "right" than the "left" whatever those words mean anymore. Because I haven't gotten too far into it, yet.
