history of ideas

A 5 page paper including a synopsis of the text, as well as a critical analysis of the implications made by the thesis of the text. the subject is the history of an idea and it should be about a book. I picked this one but if there is any better one you could choose it. so the essay should be about how an idea is being created and there should be discussions about it. the book that I picked for now is;
A History of Thought and Invention, from Fire to Freud by Peter Watson
but you are more than welcome to pick another book but I need to get update about it.
