Chapter 14 indicates that Western Europe was somehow more important and to us Americans I think it was. We as Americans know how Western Europe migration to the Americas and help start our country.
Even though plenty of other "cool:" historical staff was going on and happening in Eastern Europe. From the American point of view we think of Western Europe as our settlers.
Well I think we ''are" remarkably the same and not as unique as we might think we are. the global economy wsa happening or functioning roughly similarly to how it does now. To make it happen of course, there is always a group of less fortunate people than another group. Slaves were abducted so that certain groups could profit while other groups enjoyed the fruits of those laborers. This still goes on today.
Well I dont see any hazards at all in cultural borrowing if scientists and the scientific world thought like this we as people on earth would solve our problems much slower. Experiments done 200 years ago inspire and scientists 100 years later to study those experiments and yet still later another person comes along and ties up both those loose ends to solve a mystery that may help mankind live longer.
I personally have zero tolerance for petty cultural bickering. If a certain ethnic group finds a better way of doing something, than please let the rest of the world in on it.
Can anyone really stop progress like this?
