Inhaltsangabe:
More than any other text, A History of World Societies uses vibrant social history to introduce students to the global past. The text’s highly teachable organization uses a regional and comparative approach to provide a manageable global perspective. Attention to non-Western topics is strengthened in the new edition with fresh scholarship and perspectives, including more on gender and cultural history contributed by authors Merry E. Wiesner-Hanks and Clare Haru Crowston, who join the book’s team of experienced area specialists and teachers. Shortened for greater accessibility and enhanced by a new design, maps, and pedagogy, this best-selling text is now even easier to learn and teach from.
