  These fascinating books trace the history and development of some of the great political movements and economic forces which still dominate in the 21st century. Expert authors explore the backgrounds to these ideas, defining them in simple terms. Biographical and quotation panels give the details and the words of the personalities who turned these ideas into mass movements. This book traces the story of capitalism from its rise in Europe in the 18th century to the creation of today's global economy. It also looks at the problems associated with the success of capitalism and asks whether these problems can be solved.
