Title: Worlds Together, Worlds Apart by Robert Tignor, et al ISBN: 0-393-97838-9 Publisher: W.W. Norton Pub. Date: 14 January, 2003 Format: Paperback |
Average Customer Rating: 1 (1 review)

Summary: Try Harder
Comment: Not only does this provocative narrative dramatically depart from the admittedly tired "rise of the West" storyline - it departs from the purpose of an educational text altogether. The writing in this book is, in a word, pathetic; the authors don't even appear to have a grasp of how to construct a paragraph. The powerful ideas and the context-hungry hodge-podge of stories in this interpretation of the history of civilization since 1300 are skewed by the authors' blatant preoccupation with the cultural dis-integration of contemporary Globalism - to the point of affecting the architecture of the book itself. Readers who flee from the possibility of understanding anything will certainly be engaged by the colorful pictures in this book. The rest of you would do well to keep shopping.
