Publisher's Synopsis
'...clear, uncluttered text and simple explanations of complex issues...a book with little pretensions beyond helping to prepare candidates for examinations, but it does its job well.' W.K.Ritchie Following the enormous success of the first edition, Norman Lowe has revised his best-selling book, bringing it up-to-date and in line with the latest GCSE syllabus developments. In this edition coverage of world history has been extended to the present day and there is a new work section with documentary exercises for practice in interpreting historical sources. Additional illustrations have been inserted for even clearer presentation.
