I know very, very little about ANY history i.e WW1, WW2 etc. I am Scottish, and know basically nothing about William Wallace! Basically at 24 I think its about time I took a step and actually read about the past. My problem though is I am interested in all areas and really dont know where to start! Can anyone suggest what period in time I should begin at or what books I should read?

The quality of mercy is not strain'd,
It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven
Upon the place beneath: it is twice blest;
It blesseth him that gives and him that takes:
'Tis mightiest in the mightiest: it becomes
The throned monarch better than his crown;
His sceptre shows the force of temporal power,
The attribute to awe and majesty,
Wherein doth sit the dread and fear of kings;
But mercy is above this sceptred sway;
It is enthroned in the hearts of kings,
It is an attribute to God himself;
And earthly power doth then show likest God's
When mercy seasons justice.

We are unwise ... we know we are destroying life on earth and yet give priority allocation of time, energy and resources to war in Iraq and wasteful bombings in Afghanistan. Why does our super intelligence lead to crass lack of wisdom?

If so, how exactly are we doing this? If not, explain carefully why we are not.
