Charles Darwin’s thoughts on evolution, Stephen Jay Gould’s thoughts on Darwin’s thoughts, Albert Einstein’s unified field theory, Walter Bagehot’s 1873 treatise on central banking, Isaac Newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz’s development of calculus, Marcia Stigum’s voluminous work on the money market, Marquis and Jessie R. James’s history of the Bank of America, the conflict between Robert Oppenheimer and Edward Teller over the development of the hydrogen bomb, and E. O. Wilson’s theories of sociobiology all in the same breath.
