Twentieth Century Ph D Killing Sprees

Conversations with History: Niall Ferguson



Niall Ferguson discusses his book "The War of the World".
Ferguson analyzes the role of ethnic conflict, economic volatility, and the decline of empires in making the twentieth century the most violent one in human history.

Blogger's Note: I find the question and answer segment at 43:30 of this broadcast to be quite revealing.



All your favorite authors can be found discussing books via CSPAN.org and Book TV. Enjoy!
