The Western Experience
Authors
More about the book
This book integrates social, economic, cultural and political elements of Western civilization. Each chapter is written as a complete unit - exploring historical themes, causes and processes, rather than simply stating names, dates and events. Volume I covers Western civilization to 1715 (chapters 1-17) and volume II covers Western civilization from 1600 (chapters 15-30). The book is available both as a two-volume set and as a three volume-set. In the three-volume set, volume I covers antiquity to the Middle Ages (chapters 1-12), volume II the early modern period to Napoleonic times (chapters 11-21) and the modern era to the present (chapters 20-30).
