The completely updated edition of J. M. Roberts and Odd
Arne Westad's widely acclaimed, landmark bestseller The
Penguin History of the World For generations of readers
The Penguin History of the World has been one of the
great cultural experiences - the entire story of human
endeavour laid out in all its grandeur and folly, drama
and pain in a single authoritative book. Now, for the
first time, it has been completely overhauled for its 6th
edition - not just bringing it up to date, but revising
it throughout in the light of new research and
discoveries, such as the revolution in our understanding
of many civilizations in the Ancient World. The closing
sections of the book reflect what now seems to be the
inexorable rise of Asia and the increasingly troubled
situation in the West. About the authors: J.M. Roberts,
CBE, published The Penguin History of the World in 1976
to immediate acclaim. His other major books include The
Paris Commune from the Right, The Triumph of the West
(which was also a successful television series), The
Penguin History of Europe and The Penguin History of the
Twentieth Century. He died in 2003. Odd Arne Westad, FBA,
is Professor of International History at the London
School of Economics. He has published fifteen books on
modern and contemporary international history, among them
The Global Cold War, which won the Bancroft Prize, and
Decisive Encounters, a standard history of the Chinese
civil war. He also served as general co-editor of the
Cambridge History of the Cold War.
