Personalities & Problems: Interpretive Essays in World Civilization, Volume I by Ken Wolf

This is a unique collection of original essays about real people whose lives or careers demonstrate solutions to problems of their times. Each chapter focuses on a problem or issue by discussing the lives of two historical figures (actual or near contemporaries of each other) whose careers illustrate the richness and variety of human history.
