M-Lancaster Fanning, Saturday, January 22, 2000 L—Wl r ia 2T Tops in Their Millennium Responding to a question from The World Almanac (World Almanac Books, 1999), Pulitzer pnze-wm ning historian Arthur M. Schlesmger Jr. named his choices for the ten most-influential people in the second millennium. Do you recognize all ten? Listed in order of importance, they are. William Shakespeare, Isaac Newton, Charles Darwin, Nicholaus Copernicus, Galileo Galilei, Albert Einstein, Christopher Columbus, Abraham Lincoln, Johann Gutenberg, and William Harvey. Gutenberg (c. 1397-1468) was a German print er, the first to use movable type cast in molds, and Harvey (1578-1657) is considered by some to be the founder of modem medicine for his dis coveries about the heart.
