This unique reference book covers the lives and work of nearly 2000 men and women who, by thought, word or deed, have influenced the way we think in the twentieth century.

'The editors are right to claim a certain uniqueness for the work. It contains a mass of detailed information not readily available elsewhere. All who wish to extend their knowledge, no matter in what direction, should snap up a copy without delay' THE TABLET

'Heroes of the business world may share a page with a pianist, a physicist and a jurist. A soldier may rub shoulders with an endocrinologist, two poets and a despot. Inventors mill around with philosophers and Iberian novelists.... Browsing from entry to entry, it would be hard not to learn a little about rather a lot .... Lord Bullock and Mr Woodings's eclectic companion has no direct competitor on the reference shelves' ECONOMIST

'It is designed as a complement to The Fontana Dictionary of Modern Thought... but it is also a valuable work of reference in its own right; indeed, it is arguably more valuable.... Its very range-the variety of contributors as well as fields-constitutes a corrective to any sectarian character which such a volume might otherwise be in danger of assuming, and it will be a dogmatically unreceptive or astonishingly erudite reader who does not find something interesting and useful in its fact-packed pages'
