NOTA! El título se imprime con un corte antiguo, por lo que las páginas se han cortado para que intencionalmente se vean de esta manera La historia más exitosa del mundo para los jóvenes lectores de E. H. Gombrich narra la historia de la humanidad desde la Edad de Piedra hasta la bomba atómica, centrándose no en pequeños detalles sino en la experiencia humana, el alcance del logro humano y la fragilidad. Producto de una sensibilidad generosa y humana, este relato atemporal hace inteligible el lapso completo de la historia humana. En cuarenta capítulos concisos, Gombrich cuenta la historia del hombre desde la edad de piedra hasta la bomba atómica. En el medio emerge una colorida imagen de guerras y conquistas, grandes obras de arte, y la extensión y las limitaciones de la ciencia. Este es un texto dominado no por fechas y hechos, sino por el barrido de la experiencia de la humanidad a lo largo de los siglos, una guía de los logros de la humanidad y un testimonio agudo de sus debilidades.
Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Entre los muchos escritos de E. H. GOMBRICH se encuentran los bestsellers internacionales The Story of Art y Art and Illusion. Fue director del Instituto Warburg de la Universidad de Londres desde 1959 hasta 1976.
