Headrick asks a set of questions that are infrequently discussed, and analyzes them in an interesting way. This will be an important and widely cited book."-- Stanley L. Engerman, University of Rochester Biography: Daniel R. Headrick is professor emeritus of social science and history at Roosevelt University. His books include "The Tools of Empire: Technology and European Imperialism in the Nineteenth Century" and "The Earth and Its Peoples: A Global History".
