Description: Eternal Imprints: Figures that Made History and Others that Changed the Future of their Countries presents a bold new reading of 22 inspirational figures that changed the course of history. The enduring influence of such figures can be seen both in terms of the national development of their respective countries and with regards to the notable impact they have had upon a number of key areas, which to note but a few examples, spans across the fields of politics, economics, development, science, military affairs, etc. The stances they adopted and their individual achievements, intelligence and willpower have come to represent a timeless source of inspiration. Individuals that have had a negative impact historically are intentionally overlooked, for they do not serve the objective of the book, which aims to provide the reader with prominent, wholly positive examples that can be traced throughout history right up until the present day. The values held by the leading personalities that are examined in this volume, and the lessons that can be learnt from them, provide others with a springboard from which to build upon as well as emboldening efforts designed to confront modern-day challenges and crises. The book does not limit itself to inspirational figures that are deceased. Rather, it examines the contributions of several contemporary figures whose visions and ideas have shaped and continue to shape the national development of their respective countries and the broad-based and extensive progress that has been made therein.
