"The 100" is perhaps one of the greatest books on the analysis of history ever written. The author of the book Dr. Michael H. Hart is a man of amazing erudition in diverse fields and domains of study and research. He holds an A.B. from Cornell University, an L.L.B. from New York Law School, an MS is Physics from Adelphi University and a Ph.D. in astronomy from Princeton University. He has worked at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland; the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado and Hales Observatories in Pasadena, California. He is currently a senior staff scientist with the Systems and Applies Sciences Corporation in Riverdale, Maryland and a member of American Astronomical Society and its Division of Planetary Science. Hart is coeditor of Extraterrestrials: Where Are They? and has written many technical articles for may major publications. He lives in Annandale, Virginia.
In 1978, when Michael Hart’s controversial book The 100 was first published, critics objected that Hart had the nerve not only to select who he thought were the most influential people in history but also rank them according to their importance.
Needless to say that the critics were wrong, thousands of copies of the book have sold. As Hart emphasizes in the book again and again that the yardstick for ranking the people in his book is their influence not their greatness, the people who swayed the destinies of millions of human beings, determined the rise and fall of civilizations and the course of history.
With incisive biographies, Hart describes their careers and contributions. Explaining his rating, he presents a new perspective on history, gathering together the vital facts about the world’s greatest religious, spiritual and political leaders, inventors, writers, philosophers, explorers, artists and innovators.
Hart’s selection may surprise some and questioned by others. Neither Jesus nor Marx, but Muhammad is designated as the most influential person in human history. The writer’s arguments may challenge and perhaps convince readers, but whether or not they agree with him, his manner of writing is both informative and entertaining.
In this blog I have linked each historical figure ranked in the book to wikipedia. But to get the complete understanding and know the critical reasons for ranking certain people above or below others, it is highly recommended to go through the book.
Michael Hart Gives a very broad view and clear understanding of human history. He also provides us with an in depth analysis of these people's impact on humanity with very powerful arguments in support of his claims.

no gandhi?
Gandhi was mentioned in the first ten interesting misses. Reason for no place for him in the 100 was given in the book as follows:
"First, the independence of the British India was inevitable sooner or later and second, Gandhi did not make significant number of followers of his principles and ideals."
uhmmmm....friend.....interesting,
i am sure that many ppldokt know many of these men....dont you think that
any women...like marie curie...french name(she was born in Poland)is not here...any way it is very interesting groupe...but many men(generic)from sub developed counties...are not here
From south america...SIMON BOLIVAR...INCREDIBLE HEROE....AS USUAL I LIKE YOU POST...QUESTIONING
Even as I congratulate Mr hart on the excellent biographical work, the exclusion of Nikola Tesla is an egregious oversight, especially since both Edison and Marconi (whom Tesla surpassed) are on this list. I am quite dismayed by this - please look into it.
I congrats Michael hart on this individual Superb idea, for the sake of commenting not arguing:
1. Scientist don't deserve much place on this list Since if Marconi had't invented phone, Surely someone else would have soon. Same with Newton and others "Lucky Humans". This fact is ignored by Mr. Heart.
2. Conquerors from Today's 3rd world countries such as
A) Tariq bin Ziad-- who conquered Spain& Portugal-Muslim ruled 700 Years
B) MOGUL EMPERORs who made india World Super power in 1600s AD
c) HULEGU KHAN-- who finished off Muslim caliphate-No 1 threat to POPE and christian world
D) BATU Khan- Conquered Russia & Easter Europe - 12th Century
E) ATILLA THE HUN- conquered and Ruled MUCH OF EUROPE -including Germany & France,Russia, Holland, Denmark etc) - 4th Century AD
F) HAMURABI - gave first Human Rights charter
To name ONLY FEW above- I think MICHAEL HART haven't studied whole human history before writing the book. anyway good effort on his part but not complete.
Hart had Earl of Oxford at #31 rather than "Wm. Shakespeare".
Great....
happy to see MUHAMMED (s.a.w) at first position.
Lailaha illallah! Muhammed rasulul lalh!,
Umar bin khatab was legend
it is good that mr hert give first place to muhammed
Time magazine has been recognizing the most influential people in the world today. Here are the 16 most influential:

nice work mr hart
I’ve read a lot about this book on the influential people in history but have not read it myself. I was interested to know who was included in the 100, so thank you for posting this here.
If Michael Hart includes great commanders like Alexander the great, Nipolean etc, well how can he ignore Khalid Bin Waleed & Sultan Sallah-u-Deen??
Great list and very good.
I agree that not including Nikola Tesla is a mistake. He invented radio, our whole A/C electrical system, and all the electric motors we use.
I agreed..
Tesla was important in electrical...
Cok yanli ve tarafli bir secim olmus. Osmanliyi 6 yabanci ulkenin isgalinden kurtararak Turkiye Cumhuriyetini kuran Mustafa Kemal ATATÜRK'ü dahil etmeyip 1.5 milyon yahudiyi katledip avrupayi akil almaz bir savasa surukleyen hitleri listeye almis. Cok ironik.... :(
Imagine a City...
Imagine a city where every home had on it's front lawn a piece of sculpture or an art installation.
Imagine a city where each and every business invited artists to exhibit their work to the company's patrons.
Imagine a city where instead of gifting clothing, electronics, chocolate, or cash, a work of art was given, and appreciated.
Imagine a city where each and every home housed and preserved an art collection. Where insecurities over self-interests were dispensed with, and collections reflected those varied tastes.
Imagine a city where glass, pottery, painting, photography. fibers, basketry, and even graffiti were embraced. Where the artists themselves were looked upon as a treasured resource. No matter their perspective.
Imagine a city where any construction project involved multiple artists, in its' execution.
Imagine a city which preserved its' creative heritage and embraced it.
Imagine a city which understood, that capturing a slice of life had merit. But to alter a communities perspective to embrace all thought and belief, strengthened it, not weakened it.
Imagine a city which led the World in cultural munificence which would then reap the reward of becoming a global mecca.
Imagine a city which could step outside of what others were doing could walk the path of its' own making.
Imagine a city where meetings to enact such change, needn't take place. Rather a spontaneous change came from its' citizenry itself.
Imagine a city which artists flocked to; enabling them to create without fear of censorship or derision.
Imagine a city not dependent upon their museums or art schools for their lead in any discussions of artistic merit, but rather the career artists themselves.
I have imagined this city since childhood, as have most of my colleagues. Instead we've swum through muck, hoping such change would miraculously happen without distracting us from our labors. Or moved to the closest metropolis which appeared poised to take the plunge.
Cleveland, like most cities, while not a blank canvas; is one, where the image it sports has faded beyond restoration. The time to paint over it has come. Shiny new unaesthetic buildings, are simply masking the rot.

"In the distant future, when America is a mere shadow of itself, who historically, shall be remembered? In sports, an argument can be made for Ruth, Chamberlain, Gretzky, Ali, et al. In Art, there is but one name, Breed."

It is good to see that our messenger MUHOMMED is on the top. But there is not any Sultan of Ottoman Empire in thr list. Espcially, Sultan Sulemian the first and Mehmed the Conqueror.
Yea I shall be very glad to see that our Dear prophet MUHOMMED is on the top.Actually Michael H Hart realized that it will not start without MUHOMMED.
Yea I shall be very glad to see that our Dear prophet MUHOMMED is on the top.Actually Michael H Hart realized that it will not start without MUHOMMED.
God bless you,without knowing islam you just took from history and prove Muhammad(saw) in the first place he is a last messagener of god how could god will leave him fall behind others he is a last and final weapon of god against evil.

'Mr. Hart realized that it will not start without Hz. MUHAMMAD (Sa:).' --absolutely!
its a great one thanks sir,,,
Come on Jesus Christ should be number 1, he is the most well know person of all time and the central figure of greatest religion of world.
After Mohammed(PBUH) second place should be Issa(PBUH) Jesus.
Definitely human will never be satisfied.I appreciate de work done by Dr Hart.I just got to know this list today through a Muslim brother.a lot of religious leaders were on top to prove that there is a GOD and he is one only the perception of the message differs.great work Mr Hart
Thank you
List is amazing. I really feel happy to see Muhammad P.B.U.H on top of the list. I think Propht Mosa A.S and Issa A.S should come after because tought us lesson of Allah and every thing comes after Allah'message. Good work Mr Hart
Hi, Mr Hart First of all my hearty congrats to you happy to see my beloved Prophet sallalahu alaihi wasallam in the first place, next is Hazrath Isa Alaihis salaam next is Hazrath Moosa alaihissalaam and last but not the Least Hazrath Umar radiallahu thaala anhu in the List.

revolutionized medicine not to mention explaining the circulatory system and developing medical instruments and how to perform surgeries his canon of medicine was standard operating tewxt in europe for fuckin 4 centuries..then the other guy had by far the best optical lens of his time created the telescope... not enough time was spent on the arab golden age of persia bagdad cairo and corodoba...these were cosmoolitian cites each with major universities and home to chrsitians jews and muslims befoee the fucking mongol invasions....and they sparked the renai8ssance and enlightenment...for cris sakes wheres the mention of Averroes? or Ibn Razi ....fuckin arabs knew about heliocentric model first and had precursor notations of calculus...they had precursor knowledge ofthe laws of gravity.... THIS TOP 100 IS A DISSERVICE OF HU*MAN EXPERIENCE..and what about robert noyce and the integrated chip???? jazz music?????? theres an important figure that helped get us to the moon too.....GET UR SHIT TOGETHER
Dr hart has done a great job...our perspective on things will be different, u don't need to abuse mor argue with.....let's see ur own perspective about the most influential...
Michael Hart indicated that the list is not compiled using how great they were, rather, it took into account the influence they'd on society over the years. Nelson Mandela, kwame Nkrumah fought for the freedom of their people, yes, but what happened next?

Heard alot about this book..
Happy to see my prophet(PBUH) on number 1..
As it states most influential persons in the history.. he should also add Hazrat Ali ibn abu talib A.S and hazrat Hussain ibn Ali A.S.. as their effect is still there on the life of millions of people today

Is this hate or jealousy This list cannot be changed because if it were then these people wouldn't stand for anything. Even though he was a Christian .. Still chose Muhammad S. A. W. .. AND YOU'RE SAYING THAT IT'S ALL FAKE?.. EVEN THOUGH ITS FAKE TRY TO IMAGINE A PERSON LIKE MUHAMMAD S. A. W.. KIND, FORGIVING, LOVING AND PERFECT.

Why nikola Tesla didn't got any position? The man who truly changed the world 🌍, and makes our life better
Michael Hard studied for 28 years on that topic and come to this conclusion.
I respect of all your opinion.
Muhammad is meaning of peace
Muhammad is meaning of peace
Mohammed s.a.w at 1st
I live Muhammad
Muhammad pbuh jaisa koi nai
Its a shame that Dr. Michael H.Hart didn't include the Greatest Scientist ever born in the history of Mankind. Believe me it's really a shame. How he can be such an ignorant. Tesla was more influential than Edison, Einstein, Galileo Darwin, Stephan Hawking etc. Rather he include A jerk Jhon F Kennedy, wow it's a surprise, JFK is more influential than Tesla..lol... salute to the caliber of Dr. Hart. He even didn't include the name of Tesla in the honorary list.... Are you fucking serious. I want to burn his disgusting book, I'm so angry upon him ��️��️��️
Alhamdhulillah
i wanted to say that this blog is interesting and wonderful. https://imoapkdownloads.com/

Muhammad(S.A.W) No.1 अल्लाह का शुक्र है अल्लाह ने उनके जिक्र को बुलंद कर दिया। अस्सलातु अस्सलाम
अकबर की क्या हैसियत इन सब के मुकाबिल।।????
¿Alguien sabe cuál es la listas original de 1978 y cuáles fueron las modificaciones de 1992?
A must read! This book is amazing!
Hart gives first place to our great leader. It thrills me. But when we read the notes on Prophet by hart , it is obvious that , hart attributes many wrong matters.
