Book Mankind

  • Author : Pamela D. Toler
  • Publisher : Running Press Adult
  • Release : 2012-10-30
  • ISBN : 0762447176
  • Pages : 450 pages

Download or read book Mankind written by Pamela D. Toler and published by Running Press Adult. This book was released on 2012-10-30 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It takes more than 10 billion years to create just the right conditions on one planet for life to begin. It takes another three billion years of evolving life forms until it finally happens, a primate super species emerges: mankind. In conjunction with History Channel's hit television series by the same name, Mankind is a sweeping history of humans from the birth of the Earth and hunting antelope in Africa's Rift Valley to the present day with the completion of the Genome project and the birth of the seven billionth human. Like a Hollywood action movie, Mankind is a fast-moving, adventurous history of key events from each major historical epoch that directly affect us today such as the invention of iron, the beginning of Buddhism, the crucifixion of Jesus, the fall of Rome, the invention of the printing press, the Industrial Revolution, and the invention of the computer. With more than 300 color photographs and maps, Mankind is not only a visual overview of the broad story of civilization, but it also includes illustrated pop-out sidebars explaining distinctions between science and history, such as why there is 700 times more iron than bronze buried in the earth, why pepper is the only food we can taste with our skin, and how a wobble in the earth's axis helped bring down the Egyptian Empire. This is the most exciting and entertaining history of mankind ever produced.

  • Pages : 388 pages

Download or read book A Nation Among Nations written by Thomas Bender and published by Hill and Wang. This book was released on 2006-12-12 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A provocative book that shows us why we must put American history firmly in a global context–from 1492 to today. Immerse yourself in an insightful exploration of American history in A Nation Among Nations. This compelling book by renowned author Thomas Bender paints a different picture of the nation's history by placing it within the broader canvas of global events and developments. Events like the American Revolution, the Civil War, and subsequent imperialism are examined in a new light, revealing fundamental correlations with simultaneous global rebellions, national redefinitions, and competitive imperial ambitions. Intricacies of industrialization, urbanization, laissez-faire economics, capitalism, socialism, and technological advancements become globally interconnected phenomena, altering the solitary perception of these being unique American experiences. A Nation Among Nations isn’t just a history book–it's a thought-provoking journey that transcends geographical boundaries, encouraging us to delve deeper into the globally intertwined series of events that spun the American historical narrative.

Book The World s Inhabitants  Or Mankind  Animals  and Plants

Download or read book The World s Inhabitants Or Mankind Animals and Plants written by George Thomas Bettany and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 964 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The World's Inhabitants, or Mankind, Animals, and Plants: Being a Popular Account of the Races and Nations of Mankind, Past and Present, and the Animals and Plants Inhabiting the Great Continents and Principal Islands Eturning from a mental voyage, not merely round the world, but among all peoples, the author may perhaps be permitted to say, that if any considerable portion of the pleasure and instruction he has derived from it may be shared by his readers, his object will be amply realised. It must be confessed that he had set himself no slight task in the endeavour to include in one volume, in good type and well illustrated, a review of the peoples at present existing on the globe, as well as a sketch of the past mutations of each country, - change of masters and change of people, -extending the view even to the prehistoric inhabit ants. But if people in general are to have any chance of gaining an acquaintance with a subject so wide as the present, it must be presented to them in a readable volume of moderate size and attractive in form. Probably no two authors would agree in their view of the proportion to be assigned to the different topics, and it cannot be expected that every one will be satisfied with the space assigned to his pet subject. The labour of endeavouring to attain accuracy throughout, and of bringing up the work to the latest date, has been very considerable, but it is hoped that nothing superfluous, diluted, or Without interest to many readers, will be found to have been included. In deciding to deal with Europe first, and to begin with our own country, the author was influenced by the Special importance to us of knowing more about ourselves and our immediate neighbours. He has thus avoided the danger of being tempted at the last to give inadequate space to the European peoples. Even such a brief resume of the history of each nation as has been attempted will be of advantage to those who may have read no Special work dealing with European history.
