History人类大历史
(uk) Ian Cefton (uk) Jeremy Black
Evolution, competition, transformation... How did we get to where we are today step by step? This book "highlights" every important turning point in human history from the perspectives of astronomy, biology, history, and geography, constructs a macro historical framework, and guides us to clearly understand the mysteries and truths of major events in six contexts, from the Big Bang to the creation of life, animals dominating the earth, humans dominating the world, human civilization, the rise of the West, and the modern world. By reading this book, we can build a bridge between the universe, life and civilization, clarify the "coordinates" of human beings in the universe, and find the meaning of our own existence in the grand narrative of history.
