The Influencers: Commodities That Shaped World History

By: Prabir Ghosh

The word 'INFLUENCER' in today's digital world of social media have a different parlance and meaning. In the context of history this word has a wider and deeper meaning and is more synonymous with 'Game Changer'. In history, when we think about influencer, the names those come to our minds are personalities who influenced human lives in different area.

This book aims to bring a twist in our clich course of thinking and also humbly challenge common perception about the concept that a human being can only be an INFLUENCER. It unveils fourteen of such inanimate influencers, who have changed human lives for generations. These are fourteen common commodities from our daily lives. We know about them but hardly attempted to dig into their history (or should we say their legacies) to uncover the impact they marked in human history.

This book brings to the readers the origin, history and their massive influence in human history. Vincent van Gogh famously commented once "Great things are done by a series of small things brought together". He might have made this remark on some other perspective and with a situation in mind. However, this quote is extremely appropriate for these fourteen commodities. That's why this book is titled 'The Influencers'.
