Focusing on influential macrohistorians from various eras, the book explores their contributions to understanding grand social change. By examining figures like Ssu-Ma Ch'ien, Ibn Khaldun, and Marx, the authors aim to develop a comprehensive theory that links macrohistory with sociology. This collaboration offers a unique comparative perspective on how these historians have shaped our self-conception and the broader narrative of human history.
