Excellent source of knowledge

This is a comprehensive book that contains not only a brief summary on the philosophy that inspired revolutions around the world for the past century, but also the experiments and ultimately failures it caused around the world. Nothing is spared with almost every topic cover, though not in immense and meticulous detail, but enough for anyone to enjoy and learn something from.
