so, i've moved on to the next book on my reading list. i'm still working through the archaic/classical period, which, of course, is completely focused on the middle east and mediterranean regions (a.k.a. European history), but that may change as i read deeper into the book. surely, the peoples of east Asia, the Americas, Africa, Australia and Oceania (did i miss anyone?) contributed something. there's one thing about this book that's really bothering me though. as i read, it dances in my mind and distracts me. but maybe i'm just being pompus.

is there anyone else who thinks that the title should be An History of Knowledge?
