Popis produktu

An illuminating account of contemporary civilizations from one of France's greatest post-war historiansWritten from a consciously anti-ethnocentric approach, this fascinating work is a survey of the civilizations of the modern world in terms of the broad sweep and continuities of history, rather than the "event-based" technique of most other texts.A History of Civilizations examines the Muslim world, Africa, the Far East, Western Europe (from the fall of the Roman Empire to political union), Eastern Europe, the European civilizations of the New World, and "the English-speaking universe."
