Worlds Together, Worlds Apart
A History of the World, Volume C: From 1750 to Present
Worlds Together, Worlds Apart makes world history more dynamic and easier to teach with its global, integrative approach. This unique text highlights the stories and themes in world history that tied cultures and regions together, and in some cases drove them apart. In this second edition, the book's non- Eurocentric approach continues, with expansions of the original eleven world history "turning point" stories from the modern period to include ten "turning point" stories from the earlier periods of world history. From the history of the world's first cities built on the great rivers of Afro-Eurasia, to the rise of nation-states, Worlds Together, Worlds Apart provides students with the stories that changed history and enables them to make connections in order to better understand the world today.
- Inclusion of every region of the world in most chapters, rather than each region having its own chapter in each period. This integrative approach within a well-defined chronological framework encourages students to think of world history as a dynamic process and enables students to identify comparisons and connections across regions and over time.
- Three major new themes in the second edition enhance coverage of gender, migration, and the environment, further enabling students to make connections and comparisons across time and place on a global scale.
