Penguin's Great Ideas Book Club

I would consider it a great accomplishment if I read all of the books in this series. I want to learn from my forefathers and foremothers what ideas have been born and then lost in our modern times. If everyone had this kind of education would we still have to learn from our mistakes? If all of these great ideas were put to use what amount of difference could it make?
