This is a must read book! In Bhagavat Gita Ch18.13-14, Krishna speaks of five partial causes one of which is Daiva or the unknown/unpredictable causes. This book shows you how a lot of western historical narrative or even economic theorizing is just a load of crap. Yet we cling to these theories even when they have been shown wrong by reality. Enjoy the talk!
