About the book: 2009 / Who are the eccentrics and originals? Strange, original, different people. They say they decorate our lives and open up new horizons. Like, for example, the librarian of the Rumyantsev Museum Nikolai Fedorov with his principle “You need to live not for yourself (egoism), not for others (altruism), but with everyone and for everyone” and the unrealistic ideal of resurrecting all past generations... And the famous doctor Fyodor Haaz, who treated thousands of Muscovites for free, shared his money with them. Truly wonderful, and not wonderful, are their deeds and actions! In the next book in the “100 Greats” series, the main attention is paid to extraordinary personalities, often absurd and funny, but not stupid or vulgar. It will be of interest to anyone who appreciates unusual people and unconventional thinking..
