Michael H. Hart sa preslávil svojou knihou '100: Rebríček najvplyvnejších osôbností histórie', kde provokatívne zaradil Mohameda na prvé miesto. Jeho dielo sa zaoberá vplyvom jednotlivcov na históriu a jeho prístup k hodnoteniu často vyvoláva diskusie. Hart sa tiež venoval kontroverzným témam, ako je otázka autorstva Shakespearových diel a návrhy na rasové rozdelenie Spojených štátov. Jeho práca sa vyznačuje nekonvenčnými pohľadmi na históriu aj spoločnosť.
