Makers of Modern Culture: Five Twentieth-Century Thinkers
Summary
Makers of Modern Culture is a concise examination of five individuals--Sigmund Freud, Albert Einstein, Ludwig Wittgenstein, James Joyce, and Jean-Paul Sartre--who transformed the world with their bold and sometimes shocking ideas. Although other capable intellects have had significant impact on the twentieth century, Professor Stromberg believes that these five men had a charisma, imagination, and originality of mind that set them apart from their contemporaries.
