Published in 1878, this book provides a lively and well documented account of the history of the intellectual development of Europe up to that time. Describes in detail how and why the emerging Catholic church destroyed Alexandria, the greatest scientific research centre at the time, turned back Europe’s intellectual development by centuries, and plunged Europe into its long Dark Age, managing to prevent any scientific progress for over a thousand years.
