About This Novel
"The Rise of the West: A History of the Human Community" is a foundational masterpiece of global history. It tells the history of the entire human race from a global perspective, allowing you to understand the evolution of human civilization and the world pattern in one book. On the occasion of the first publication of the authorized Chinese version, master historian William McNeil wrote "To Chinese Readers" to express his message to China's renaissance, dedicating this historical masterpiece to Chinese readers who hope to gain insight into human history in a novel way. The global history that is gaining momentum today began in the 1960s, and its representative work is William McNeil's "The Rise of the West." Conceived in 1936, written in 1954, and published in 1963, it took McNeil 27 years to complete this masterpiece of history. After its release, it was immediately highly praised by historians Toynbee and Trevor Roper, and even won the National Book Award.
