R History of the Modern World : Since 1815 / R. R. Palmer, Joel Colton, and Lloyd Kramer 10th Ed. Boston : Mc Graw Hill, 2007 xxxii, 1212 p. : illus. ; 26 cm. Indeks : p.1189-1212 Dramatic event in the contemporary world-wars, revolutions, terrorist attacks, catastropic natural disasters, economic crises and the endlees stream of daily news-often obscure the long historical processes that have created the societies in which we live and the problems with which we cope. The mass media pay little attention to the broader historical patterns and contexts that give deeper meaning to the swiftly moving events of our era. This new edition of A History of the Modern World may be seen as the most recent version of a continuuing search for historical perspectives on the complex, often bewildering, events of our age. It thus carries a guiding assumption that the events,cultures, and conflicts of the contemporary world are always evolving out of the long, complex histories of diverse people, ideas, institutions, social mores, economic exchanges, and struggles for pollitical power.
