It is not a general history of the world, but a general history of Europe. This book is an objective description of the history of Europe before World War II. If you want to understand the history of European development, you can read it.
"A General History of the World" is the joint work of three famous historians and has gained global recognition. He gives a complete history of human civilization from prehistoric times to modern times. This book is the most authoritative translation so far, opening the door to world history for the Chinese. When we understand the history of other civilizations, only then can civilizations tolerate each other, share the beauty and beauty of each other, and achieve harmony in the world. The world has universal laws, and human beings have a common destiny.

The lines are clear, the key points are highlighted, the language is simple, and the narrative is concise, which can better help readers quickly grasp the historical context!
Not bad, clear and focused.
"A General History of the World" is definitely the first choice authoritative book on world history. This book covers a wide range of topics while tying together all of global history. The author is very good at revealing the general trend of history from the details. In this not very long world history article, he presents a vivid picture of the development of civilization. It is divided into several different stages from the birth of human civilization to the 21st century: the beginning of the civilized world, classical civilization, Christian civilization, modern civilization, etc. The content is all-encompassing and the text is concise and smooth, making people feel bright and refreshing.
A Western perspective on Western history, well received
Taking the development of civilization as a clue, this book provides an overview of human development and evolution from prehistory to modern times. After browsing it roughly, I have the following feelings. First, the process of civilization evolution is not linear. The prehistoric civilization that only occupies a small part at the beginning of this book is much longer than the civilized society that appeared later. At the same time, without technological revolution, organizational and institutional changes, the development of human society would have stagnated most of the time. Second, as many book friends have pointed out, the author of this book examines the development of world history from a Western-centric standpoint, does not pay enough attention to Eastern civilization, and his evaluation is not objective.

I am very interested in history, and I feel that reading this book is learning experience from history so that I can go further.
This is a comprehensive historical work covering various periods and regions of human history. Through systematic narrative and analysis, the author helps readers understand the development context and mutual influence of human civilization. The history in this book is broad and deep. The author gradually presents the progress and development of human society from the rise of ancient civilization to the changes in the modern world. By reading this book, readers can better understand the exchanges between different cultures, the motivations behind historical events, and the impact of history on today's world.
Good book, worth reading

It describes rational historical civilization simply and concisely; it also seems to have humanistic concern for the future of mankind... In short, this book is a heavy or light history book worth reading.
Yes, mainly European ones
Overall it's pretty good. The author has too many personal opinions and is easily influenced by them.
A must-have for liberal arts students. Many of the subjective questions in my exercise book are excerpted from this book.
Reading history makes people wise
Have a good read and see if there is anyone you like.
Very interesting, very helpful to my history
