For introductory courses in world history. The World gives students the whole story. It is a new kind of history text not just a collection of facts and figures. World renowned historian, world respected scholar, successful author of more than 25 books translated into 22 languages, and exceptional writer, author Felipe Fernindez-Armesto offers a truly holistic narrative of the world, from human beginnings to the present. All aspects of the text from the exceptionally clear narrative that always places the story in time, to the unparalleled map program, to the focused pedagogical features support the story. Because of the authors breadth of vision, students will come away with a deep understanding of the fundamental interrelationships among peoples and their environments that make up the worlds story.
