Synopsis
Western Civilisation, Fourth Edition is distinguished in the market for its cutting edge scholarship and wider definition of Europe that includes Eastern Europe. Scandinavia and European frontiers. Recognising that European history was affected by factors outside the continent the text also highlights Europe's place in the world, which is reinforced in the narrative and in the boxed primary source feature, "Global Encounters." As its subtitle indicates, the text discusses history not as a series of inevitable events but rather as a continuing series of "experiments" that shaped our world. By stressing the experimental nature of political and social history, the book helps keep students actively involved and encourages them to question why and how history unfolded as it did. Features: New primary source boxed feature called "The Continuing Experiment" appears in every chapter to help reinforce the main theme of the text. This edition continues in the tradition of discussing a broader notion of Europe, with increased coverage of Eastern Europe, Scandinavia and other European regions that are not traditionally examined in Western Civilisation texts. Fully revised Chapter 30 includes new discussions of the European Union, the September 11th attacks and global terrorism, the Iraq War and an examination of globalisation and its effects on the environment. Reading Sources. Primary source boxed features that appear in every chapter. Weighing the Evidence. Two-page visual source feature that appears in every chapter. Global Encounters. Primary source boxed feature, focused on European encounters with the world that appear in every chapter. Information Technology. Six features that highlight ways in which communication technology has affected our lives.
