About the book

This four-volume collection brings together Peter Watson's Ideas: A History from Fire to Freud and Ideas: A History from Wittgenstein to the World Wide Web. The first work traces the development of influential ideas across early human culture, religion, philosophy, science and the arts; the second concentrates on the intellectual transformations of the twentieth century. Watson connects discoveries and arguments with the societies in which they emerged, showing how new ways of thinking can cross disciplines and reshape ordinary life. Together, the two histories offer a wide-ranging exploration of knowledge, imagination and the changing questions through which people have understood the world.
