Summary

Throughout time monarchies, empires, republics, democracies, dictatorships, and more have risen and fallen. But often, the leaders at their helm and the political philosophies they espoused have legacies that are far more enduring. The fifty individuals and ten political movements surveyed in this convenient handbook represent some of history's most critical schools of thought. Summarizing the lives of thinkers and leaders as diverse as Thomas Paine, Karl Marx, Genghis Khan, Catherine the Great, Adolf Hitler, Nelson Mandela, and Abraham Lincoln, this volume highlights the strengths and weaknesses of each as well as their lasting influence on political thinking
