Clearly written and organized, this classic survey of European political, social, cultural, and economic history covers events from 1914 to the present in a broadly comparative context, treating the entire continent as a single unit. Completely updated to reflect the latest scholarship, the final chapter now covers the successful launch of the Euro, the expansion of the European Union, the elections of Vladimir Putin and Tony Blair, the uneasy presence of new immigrants, and Europe's search for identity in a world dominated by American might.
