{"product_id":"9780918954770","title":"The World Is Not Enough: The Imperial Vision of Philip II of Spain","description":"Professor Parker's lectures continue Baylor's tradition of   publishing first-rate scholarly presentations of some of the   world's finest historians. Often in the past, the Edmondson   Lectures have tended to fall into one of two distinct   categories: they either conveyed the results of recent   historical research, or they constituted a synthesis of a   scholar's lifetime work on a subject of major historical   importance.  Professor Parker's lectures combine the two   approaches in a masterful way as he analyzes the manner in   which Philip II of Spain managed his global Empire while   being driven—and tragically handicapped—by an overpowering   messianic complex. Parker's lectures combine the most profound   insights with a lucidity of presentation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGeoffrey Parker is the Andreas Dorpalen Professor of History at   Ohio State University.
