Editorial Reviews

They are our greatest scientists and artists. Our most admired thinkers and dreamers. From revolutionaries to saints, explorers to philosophers, this epic set counts down the 100 most influential people of the past 1,000 years. To assemble this landmark program, BIOGRAPHY. conducted a survey of scholars, scientists, journalists, artists and viewers. Among those asked to rank the 100 most important people of the millennium were Henry Kissinger, Kofi Annan, Isaac Stern, David Remnick and Bob Ballard. BIOGRAPHY then tabulated the results and produced a mini-profile of each of the 100 people who made the final list. The result is a fascinating, whirlwind tour through history, a kaleidoscopic landscape of the personalities who have shaped the world. And the countdown format eventually reveals the individual BIOGRAPHY has chosen as the "Person of the Millennium." From Genghis Khan to Thomas Edison, Bill Gates to Margaret Sanger--these are the people who have done the most to shape our world today.
