Designed as a reader for courses in world history and civilisations, this valuable supplementary text provides students with a global view of society, institutions, economics, politics, and a human perspective of the world beyond their experience. With nearly twice the number of readings, the extensively revised second edition surveys a wider scope of topics that reflect deep concern for issues of human interaction and significant factors affecting human lives--such as war, cultural and economic exchange, disease and medicine, and population. Coverage of non-European cultures has also been expanded.
