For thousands of years, most people in the world were ruled by
hereditary kings, aristocrats, chiefs, and emperors. They mostly
made their living through farming and rarely traveled very far
from their rural villages. Culture and technology changed
slowly, if at all. But by 1945, very few people lived that way.
Why? What accounts for the transformation of human life that
occurred in the century or so before 1945?
