Synopsis:

This impressive author team use a unique process to guide students in analysing evidence and drawing conclusions, dividing each chapter into six steps: Problem, Background, Method, Evidence, Questions to Consider and Epilogue. The unique structure promotes critical thinking, sharpens analytical skills and builds student interest in the subject. New comparative chapters contribute to a more thorough and balanced examination of global history. New material has been included in both volumes on topics such as the Black Death, pilgrimages, agricultural villages, the Atlantic system and popular culture. With the emphasis on historical study as interpretation rather than memorisation of data this second edition is sure to prove as popular as the first.
