Written by Chris Brazier. Published in Canada in association with New Internationalist Publications Ltd. by Between the Lines, 2006. Description: |
Most people know bits and pieces of history without ever knowing
how they fit together. The No-Nonsense Guide to World History focuses on
the continents and communities left out of conventional textbooks, integrating
their history with the more familiar narrative of imperial dynasties and
superpower battles. In one slim volume, Chris Brazier tells the whole story,
teasing out the lessons that humanity needs to take forward into the
future. This new, revised edition includes a section on how the key issues of the twenty-first century--climate change, 9/11, the war in Iraq, corporate power, Chinas rapid growth--fit into the broader patterns of world history. Chris Braziers No-Nonsense Guide to World History is vivid, informal and informative ... Professor William Bienart, St. Antony's College, University of Oxford |
