Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Maps have always been a practical tool for anyone interested in gaining a long-term perspective on world events. But especially today, when remote regions halfway around the globe can have a profound and significant impact on our lives, a comprehensive, well-designed atlas is nearly indispensable. This state-of-the-art reference contains 121 double-spread maps in full color, including 100 regional maps and a unique set of 25 that show the entire world at key dates in history between 2000 B.C. and the late 1990s. Displaying the social and political development of civilizations on every continent and at all periods in history, these maps can be used either to trace developments within a single region or to compare different civilizations at any given period (e.g. Charlemagne's feudal Europe, China's T'ang Dynasty, and the Native cultures of North America). Filled with informative essays and time charts, as well as many keys and "pointers" to highlight major geographical, social, and political details, this masterpiece of the cartographer's art is the best and handiest reference to date on the history of human life on earth.
