Overview

History Makers profiles the 100 people whose legacies burn brightest in the history of the last century—from the greatest scientists to the boldest political leaders and intellectuals—and ranks them in order of their influence.

Entries are categorized in one of five fields:
  • Politics & Leadership
  • Science & Technology
  • Popular Culture & the Arts
  • Business & Commerce
  • Writers & Thinkers
This compelling book offers a detailed profile of each person, placing their achievements in the context of their times and offering illuminating insight into their unique genius. More than that, groundbreaking concepts from disciplines as diverse as the arts, science, and business are explained in a way that is easy to understand. Over two hundred photographs bring the subject matter vividly to life and capture the moments that made history.


Julie Whitaker and Ian Whitelaw are English-born authors and editors now living with their two children in Vancouver Island, Canada, where they divide their time between writing and looking after the horses and alpacas on their small farm. Ian and Julie are both Anthropology graduates of Durham University, England, and they have worked on a wide range of book projects.

Julie is the author of The Horse: A Miscellany of Equine Knowledge and co-author of Know It All: The Little Book of Essential Knowledge. Ian is the author of Habitus Disgustica: The Complete Handbook of Annoying, Rude, and Unpleasant Behavior and A Measure of All Things: The Story of Man and Measurement, and co-author of Office 2007 Handbook and Back to School for Grown-Ups.
