Thoughts About Paul Johnson's Modern Times

Abstract: (5 pp). The fun thing about Paul Johnson's first historic tome is that it can be opened almost anywhere and read, just for the quality of the prose itself. The book is crafted by a well-informed, humorous writer, who for the most part, does not think that history is something only recorded in books, but was rather a living entity created by a versatile and often vulnerable group of people, on the planet Earth. The slight draw back is his religious impositions, however it was that which has prompted me think more about the following quote, and its overall influence on the economic and cultural trends, with their s ocial overlays of the last century.
