  Description
  In this illuminating and thoughtful book, Will and Ariel Durant have
succeeded in distilling for the reader the accumulated store of knowledge and experience from their four decades of work
on the ten monumental volumes of "The Story of Civilization." The result is a survey of human history, full of dazzling
insights into the nature of human experience, the evolution of civilization, the culture of man. With the completion of
their life's work they look back and ask what history has to say about the nature, the conduct and the prospects of man,
seeking in the great lives, the great ideas, the great events of the past for the meaning of man's long journey through
war, conquest and creation - and for the great themes that can help us to understand our own era.
  
  To the
Durants, history is "not merely a warning reminder of man's follies and crimes, but also an encouraging remembrance of
generative souls ... a spacious country of the mind wherein a thousand saints, statesman, inventors, scientists, poets,
artists, musicians, lovers, and philosophers still live and speak, teach and carve and sing..."
  
  Designed
to accompany the ten-volume set of "The Story of Civilization, The Lessons of History" is, in its own right, a profound
and original work of history and philosophy.
  
  
   Meet the
Authors
  Will Durant
  
  William James Durant was a prolific American writer, historian, and philosopher. He is best known
for the 11-volume The Story of Civilization, written in collaboration with his wife Ariel and published between 1935 and
1975. He was earlier noted for his book, The Story of Philosophy, written in 1926, which was considered "a
groundbreaking work that helped to popularize philosophy."
  
  They were awarded the Pulitzer Prize for
literature in 1967 and the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1977.
  
   
  Ariel Durant
  
  Ariel Durant was a
Russian-born American researcher and writer, the co-author of The Story of Civilization with her husband Will
Durant.
  
  Ariel Durant was born in Proskurov, Russian Empire (now Khmelnytskyi, Ukraine) as Chaya Kaufman
to Jewish parents Ethel Appel Kaufman and Joseph Kaufman. The family emigrated to the United States in 1901. She met her
future husband while a student at Ferrer Modern School in New York City. Will was then a teacher at the school, but
resigned his post to marry Ariel, who was fifteen at the time of the wedding on October 31, 1913.
  
  Ariel
and Will Durant were awarded the Pulitzer Prize for General Nonfiction in 1968 for Rousseau and Revolution, the
tenth volume of The Story of Civilization. In 1977 they were presented with the Presidential Medal of Freedom by Gerald
Ford, and Ariel was named "Woman of the Year" by the city of Los Angeles.
