The End of Rome: How the Fall of an Empire Led to the Rise of Modern Europe is a groundbreaking book that challenges traditional views on the fall of the Roman Empire.

Walter Scheidel argues that the end of Rome was not a disaster but rather a turning point that paved the way for Europe's economic rise and the creation of the modern world.

This book offers new insights into why the Roman Empire appeared, why it never returned to Europe, and how its demise launched an economic transformation that changed the continent and ultimately the world.

With a compelling narrative that spans from ancient Rome to Byzantium, China, and beyond, Scheidel shows how the end of Rome cleared the path for European dominance and shaped the modern age.
