This is a new book. Condition: Brand New.

Ancient wisdom. Modern relevance. Enduring genius.

The Roman Empire's brilliance is far from ancient history. The Roman Empire Got It Right is your passport to the past that built the future-from engineering marvels like aqueducts, concrete, and sewer systems to groundbreaking advances in health care, law, language, and even your favorite guilty pleasures (street food and wine bars may be its highest achievements). Discover the surprising ways ancient Rome shaped the modern world:

- Architectural feats like domes, amphitheaters-oh, and bathrooms
- The secret that transformed elections forever
- Rules of law that flipped the script on justice
- Organizing principles from calendars to street layouts
- Torch signals that functioned just like text notifications
- Epic entertainment events-from "ultimate" boxing to stadium sea battles

Whether you're a history buff, a trivia fan, or just curious about why ancient Rome stays on our minds, this book delivers centuries of genius in one engaging read.
