Homework for the Weekend 3/28

Atlantic Revolutions

HW - After talking about Adam Smith and his economic ideas, watch Niall Ferguson's Ted Talk '6 Killer Apps of Prosperity' about why he believes the Western world was able to succeed more so than other regions (think - why the West? Why not everyone else? )  

Link to the TED TALK  (also embedded below) 
On your blog, post a response to Ferguson (and maybe tweet him @nfergus).

IN ADDITION, in preparation for next week, read this excerpt from Briton's Anatomy of a Revolution

On your blog, summarize each step of the revolution in 2 sentences or less.

**You can post both parts of the assignment in the same blogpost**
