Human history as cultural history
At present, history is taught as though power struggles were its most important aspect. Furthermore, the present teaching of history is an indoctrination in nationalism. We need to reform our teaching of history so that the emphasis will be placed on the gradual growth of human culture and knowledge, a growth to which all nations and ethnic groups have contributed.
A new freely downloadable book
I would like to announce the publication of a book, which reviews the lives and thoughts of some of the women and men who have written novels that are regarded as great. The book may be freely downloaded and circulated from the following links:

Which novelists are in the book?
The choice of whom to put in the book was difficult, and many great novelists are left out. Here are the ones that I chose, partly becaúse experts considered their works to be great, and partly because I thought that readers might enjoy knowing more about their lives:
Miguel de Cervantes
Jane Austen
Mary Shelly
Victor Hugo
Charles Dickens
George Eliot
Leo Tolstoy
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Lewis Carroll
Joseph Conrad
H.G. Wells
Virginia Woolf
F. Scott Fitzgerald
John Steinbeck
George Orwell
Aldous Huxley
