Amazing book
As a student in one of the best International Baccalaureate schools in the world, I must say that this book is worth ordering. The amount of sources---including pictures---definately helps when preparing for the IB exam in history. I received the second edition a few days ago...and it proves to be a close companion to class notes.

A very good history book
When I studied in Singapore, it was my history textbook. But when I finished Grade 10, I needed to hand it back to School library. But I really like it very much. It's a very good history book. It mainly tells about Modern History, contains Britain, China, the USA, the USSR, Germany, France and many ohter countries. More important, the resources in the book are rich and vivid. A lot of quotes, pictures,letters and so on. They can help you to understand a lot of things more clearly. So if you want to have a general idea about modern history, read it, you won't be disappointed. Especially if you do not take history as your main subject, but still interest in it. It can help you very much.

ridiculous past review--a very good book
i have been a teacher for 4 years in international schools, and i think the previous review is written by someone with, to put is as politely as possible, very little common sense. i dont think the book is perfect, but it is useful for a variety of students, is interesting and informative without too much information, can be easily supplemented, and has a variety of useful homework assignments and activities for students to keep up with understanding or to be assigned by the teacher. the assanine charaterization of "rubbish" is far from the truth--read it for yourself.

excellent book
this is a very good history book. it explains things very clearly and is also visually pleasing. the book uses a lot of primary/secondary sources, which is good because it makes students think more deeply about history.

I bought this to supplement our home education, but it's so good that it's taken over as the primary resource for my kids to learn history. It's well illustrated with a good range of sources and the variety of exercises is good. It's not just a revision guide, like so many books are now, this is a comprehensive text book. I highly recommend it, regardless of whether it's for GCSE prep, or just general education.
