A History of the Modern World is a careful; well-written narrative of major events from the late Middle Ages to the political and religious conflicts at the beginning of the twenty-first century. It offers a wide-ranging survey that helps readers understand both the complexities of great events (e.g.; the French Revolution; the First World War; or the collapse of great imperial systems) and the importance of historical analysis. It also provides a careful summary of the modern political changes that have affected the social and cultural development of all modern cultures. Throughout the book's lifetime; A History of the Modern World has been hailed as an elegantly written historical narrative; filled with analysis and balanced historical insights as well as its traditional attention to the processes of historical change; conflict; and political transformations. The tenth edition has been updated to include the clear maps; the survey of global economic connections; the chronologies; the illustrations; and the up-to-date bibliographies that today's students need and expect.

I found it to be a very interesting book that had different aspects and stuff that is not found in the bible. I cannot say I agree with all of it; but I did find it interesting to read.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. For classBy Z. JohnsonI needed this book for a class.
