Years ago; I read the entire series; but what makes this one sparkle is the wry wit; especially appropriate for this volume's leading character.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Will Durant is the perhaps the greatest historian of all timeBy Peter W. HauerWill Durant is the perhaps the greatest historian of all time. His books were widely read during the last half of the 20th century. Sadly; Durant has been largely forgotten by modern scholars. This volume (like all the others) is both illuminating and entertaining. It discusses both Voltaire and Rousseau in great detail. These two philosophes helped to create "Modern Liberalism." Voltaire made atheism acceptable; and Rousseau endorsed "collectivism" (the idea that individual rights must always yield government power).0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
