Book Description Traditions & Encounters: A Brief Global History, Volume II: 2 [Print Replica] Publication Date:October 21, 2009
Based on Bentley and Ziegler's best-selling,
comprehensive survey text, Traditions & Encounters: A Brief Global
History provides a streamlined account of the cultures and interactions
that have shaped world history. An effective part structure organizes
developments into seven eras of global history, putting events into
perspective and creating a framework for cross-cultural comparisons,
while the strong themes of traditions (the formations and development of
the world's major societies) and encounters (cross-cultural
interactions and exchanges) bring focus to the human experience and help
turn the giant story of world history into something more manageable.
With an engaging narrative, visual appeal, extended pedagogy, and a
strong emphasis on critical thinking, this concise version offers
enhanced flexibility and affordability without sacrificing the features
that have made the complete text a favorite among instructors and
students alike.
