The Human Record: Sources of Global History Volume II: Since 1500
Editorial Reviews
Review
"I have observed before that the prologue constitutes the single best introduction to primary-source materials that I have come across. Lucid, thorough, and "student-friendly," it provides an outstanding discussion of the nature, uses, and limitations of sources."

Book Description
Unlike some other world history texts that center on the West, The Human Record provides balanced coverage of the global past. The book features both written and artifactual sources that are placed in their full historical contexts through introductory essays, footnotes, and focus questions.
The text sheds light on the experiences of women and non-elite groups while maintaining overall balance and a focus on the major patterns of global historical developments through the ages.
