Customer Reviews

Great source!

I really enjoyed this text and I thought it did a great job of assisting me in my history class regarding globalization. It was very comprehensive but also easy to read and not "too wordy". Really an enjoyable book I would recommend it to others.

great condition

i received the book in excellent condition. it provides a reasonably comprehensive history of the second half of the 20th century.

Nice Overview of Modern History

A great book which introduces the reader to history starting from World War II. Covers topics from the nuclear arms race to the creation of the European Union. Very engaging book and not boring like many others. Pick this one up.

Clear History

This book definetely among the best modern international history books that I have read. The text is clear and concise and uses new information revealed since the collapse of the Soviet Union. Furthermore, the book is of a suitable length and utilizes a writing style that is informative and yet, not too bland. A casual reader and a history buff could both use this book well.

GOOD INSIGHT INTO MODERN HISTORY

Positively framed and very well described, indeed one of the best books describing the changing world since 1945.
