Hobsbawm supplemented his evaluative excellence with a firm grasp of reasoning, crafting a volume that contains brilliant, clearly-structured arguments which explain complicated ideas via well-chosen examples in ways that make his work accessible to intelligent general readers and scholars alike.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Macat International Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54249012265304,"sku":"9781912302635","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781912302635_c3d6239c-d861-4a9c-95d8-06c841f6786b.jpg?v=1771398061","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/age-of-revolution","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
