Sources of Twentieth Century Global History

Editorial Reviews
Review
"The selection of topics is excellent. The thread of women's history is greatly appreciated... The organization of the chapters gives the students a good global perspective. This is obviously not a reader that was originally about western civilization that simply inserted non-Western sources. Each area, especially Latin America, Asia, and Africa is given detailed consideration and the student gets a clear indication of the diversity of thought within each of those areas."
