You'd like this book:

Human Accomplishment. In this book, Charles Murray ranks the greatest achievements in human history. He notes the overwhelming number of achievements that came out of European culture, and he attempts to explain that. He posits that a big part of it is Christianity, and he notes that with the death of God in Europe, its leadership of the world of achievement has also declined.
