More about the book

This best-selling world history survey uses political history as the main framework of its narrative, while emphasizing social history to a greater extent than in any comparable text. The Fourth Edition brings the history of the world to life. Coverage of the main themes and developments of world history, a special emphasis on the experiences of ordinary people, a lively writing style, integrated coverage of women's history, and increased coverage of the non-Western world are just a few of the elements that make this book so interesting to read. - from the back cover
