a| "In The New History of the World, Roberts has completely revised his monumental work for the first time, taking into account the great range of discoveries that have altered our views on everything from early civilizations to post Cold War globalism. The mapping has been brought up to date, and large portions of text have been rewritten, addressing events as recent as the relationship between the Arab and Western worlds in the wake of the September 11 attacks. In addition to the revisions, the book is now available in a reader's format - ideally suited for a new generation of readers anxious to open their minds of the great narrative of the human species."--BOOK JACKET.
