Description
Noted teachers and scholars William J. Duiker and Jackson J. Spielvogel present a brief, balanced, highly readable overview of world history that explores common challenges and experiences that unite the human past and that identify key regional patterns over time. The seventh edition has been enhanced with new end-of-chapter pedagogy that helps make the material more accessible to students. The text continues to take a regional approach to world history, with an emphasis on the development of the West and analytical comparisons between and among cultures throughout history. This approach helps students to link events together in a broad comparative and global framework, thereby placing the contemporary world in a more meaningful historical context. The text is also available with Aplia, an interactive learning solution that improves comprehension and outcomes by increasing student engagement.Available in the following split options: THE ESSENTIAL WORLD HISTORY, Seventh Edition Complete International Edition, Volume I: To 1800 International Edition, and Volume II: Since 1500 International Edition.
