Summary: Tons of Information
Comment: Billington explores the starting places of the Western revolutionary philosophy in this book. One of the most interesting things about reading the book was being able to see the great importance of the Masons and other secret societies. The whole three men and five men cell groups that even the Al Qaeda now use started then. Taking us through that horrible French revolution, Billington bombards the reader with so much information that all seems so tremendously important, that you feel bad that you can't remember all of it. And, of course, the Marxists take center-stage in recent history of revolutionary philosophy. Unfortunately, Billington only has enough space to take us to the Russian communist revolution. One gets the impresion that the whole idea of global, organized terrorism started with the Marxists.

I think this book will really change the way you see history, and present day secret-societies, terrorist groups, and Marxists.
