Yes but if you don't know anything about European and US history roughly 1850-1950 you might get bored. A lot of it is just standard history. But he is brilliant. Read Anglo-American Establishment first either way.

Like many thinkers of his time, Quigley was influenced by Indian philosophy. The Hindus and Buddhists understood that what gave man continuity over countless lifetimes was not his body, or even his mind, but his labour, his karma. The tragedy and hope, and the history of our labour determines his future, not his class or the whims of God. If you want to understand quigley, you have to understand the Upanishads
