Opis

At the beginning of the twentieth century, globalizing, booming economies married to technological breakthroughs seemed to promise a better world for most people. In this title, the author reveals how economic boom-and-bust, decaying empires and - above all - poisonous ideas of race led men to treat each other as aliens.
