Comment: A birthday gift from my son signed "for your quest for enlightenment." A mathematician takes a shot at the big picture, about history & the history of history (not my favorite subject), and true to his field, lifelessly written, fraught with passive verbs. Tiring to read, but ok material. His title expresses the essence of his main point: that all of history and interpretation of history comes from three fundamental threads. He makes his point and uses a lot of pictures but he wore me down.
