The Dumbness of the Great by Joseph McCabe is a critical examination of the world's most renowned leaders, exploring the nonsensical, absurd, inconsistent, illogical, inaccurate, and idiotic aspects of their personalities and actions. The book provides a comprehensive survey of the flaws and shortcomings of some of the most celebrated figures in history, including Julius Caesar, Napoleon Bonaparte, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Winston Churchill, and many others. Written in a witty, engaging style, the book offers a fresh perspective on the flaws and foibles of the great and powerful, challenging the conventional wisdom that these individuals were all brilliant and infallible. The Dumbness of the Great is a thought-provoking and entertaining read that will appeal to anyone interested in history, politics, and human nature.Contents: Aristotle And The Ancient World, Augustine And The Christian Fathers, Aquinas And The Schoolmen, Leaders Of Renaissance Days, Luther And The Reformers, Pioneers Of The Modern Age, Aberrations Of Early Science, The Great Modern Philosophers, Greater Writers Of The Eighteenth Century, Leaders Of The Napoleonic Age, Poison Gas Against Science, The New Social Oracles, Our Modern Fallible Popes, Other Modern Oracles.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
