Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
The market leader, Twentieth-Century World covers recent world history by focusing on themes of global interrelatedness, identity and difference, the rise of mass society, and technology versus nature. These themes, which are outlined in the book's Introduction, help place historical events in a larger context.

Had to pick this book up for a History class, and the book certainly does what it says it will.
The book does do quite well though managing to keep the topics interesting ... even when the reader may not be the most enamored with its reading. Which is a difficult task for any historical textbook, especially dealing with college students!
However, for a quick brush up on reading, or for any average reader looking to gain some insight into this time period, I'd certainly recommend it. I have an above average interest with history, so I enjoyed the book immensely. Some of other college friends .. not so much. (Bear in mind, they are in college).
I've picked it back up a few times and done a few reads over it to brush up on history. It's detailed enough, without flooding the reader with too many facts. All in all, a praiseworthy textbook.
