【簡介】 Give your students a bird’s-eye view of world history McNeill’s The Webs of Humankind offers a refreshingly clear view of world history through the lens of connective “webs” of interaction—along which trade, religious beliefs, technologies, pathogens, and much else traveled. Instructors have hailed McNeill’s approach as “integrative” and “accessible,” and students call the book “easy-to-absorb” and “fun to read.” In response to helpful instructor feedback, McNeill has made the Second Edition easier to fit into the standard two-term sequence, with more emphasis on the kinds of connections and comparisons that world history instructors want students to make. He also dramatically expanded primary source offerings and strengthened coverage of Indigenous peoples throughout. Students have flocked to the affordable ebook—and with the Second Edition, this format will provide increased support through embedded assessment and engaging author videos. 【目錄】 Combined Volume: Ch 1–29 PART 1: THE FIRST 99.93% OF HUMAN HISTORY  Chapter 1: Last Hominin Standing: Migration, Settlement, and Agriculture to 6000 Years Ago Chapter 2: Building Complex Societies, 9000 to 1500 BCE PART 2: REGIONAL WEBS AND THEIR FUSION INTO THE OLD WORLD WEB Chapter 3: The Southwest Asian Web: Mesopotamia and the Indus Valley, 3500 BCE to 200 BCE Chapter 4: From Nile to Ganges: An Expanding Web, 3000 BCE to 200 BCE Chapter 5: Building the Old World Web: Persia, Greece, and the Hellenistic World, 600 BCE to 200 CE Chapter 6: Weaving an East Asian Web, 5000 BCE to 200 CE Chapter 7: The West End of the Old World Web: Carthage, Rome, and the Mediterranean World, 800 BCE to 200 CE Chapter 8: On the Frontiers of the Old World Web: Africa and Europe to 200 CE Chapter 9: The Americas and Oceania before 1000 CE PART 3: MATURING WEBS, 200 TO 1400 CE Chapter 10: The West End of the Old World Web: New Patterns of Power and Faith, 200 to 800 Chapter 11: China and Its Neighbors: The East End of the Old World Web, 200 to 1400 Chapter 12: Forging an Indian Ocean World: South Asia, Southeast Asia, and East Africa, ca. 200 to 1400 Chapter 13: The West End of Eurasia and West Africa, 800 to 1400 Chapter 14: The Americas and Oceania, 1000 to 1500 PART 4: WEAVING THE GLOBAL WEB, 1400 TO 1800   Chapter 15: Convergence: The Discovery of the Oceans and Biological Globalization, 1400 to 1800 Chapter 16: Disruption: Africa and The Americas, Siberia, and Oceania, 1492 to 1800 Chapter 17: Cultural Upheavals: Religious and Intellectual Movements, 1500 to 1750 Chapter 18: University of War: Empires and Power, 1450 to 1800 Chapter 19: The First Global Economy, 1500 to 1800 PART 5: REVOLUTIONS, 1640 TO 1920 Chapter 20: The Best and Worst of Times: Atlantic Revolutions, 1640 to 1830 Chapter 21: Fossil Fuels and Mass Production: Industrial Revolutions around the World, 1780 to 1914 Chapter 22: Two Liberations: The Vital Revolution and the Abolitions of Slavery and Serfdom, 1750 to 1950 Chapter 23: Nationalism and Imperialism: Tightening the Global Web, 1800 to 1930 Chapter 24: Making the Modern World: Confronting Industrialization, Nationalism, and Imperialism, 1850 to 1920 PART 6: THE GLOBAL WEB SINCE 1870 Chapter 25: International Politics: War, Peace, and Ideologies, 1870 to 1940 Chapter 26: World War II: Global War in the Global Web, 1937 to 1945 Chapter 27: The Cold War and Decolonization, 1945 to 1991 Chapter 28: The Rise of the East, 1945 to 1991 Chapter 29: A Shrinking World: Globalization since 1980
