A People's History of the World cover

A People's History of the World offers a rethinking of who should be the focus of the tales we tell about the past . Taking a bold, new approach to understanding the nature of change over time on a global scale, the three temporal approaches in A People's History structure the analysis and reveal patterns, conjunctures, and tipping points, facilitating a thorough integration of social and economic history. The result is a text that more than any other shows how "the people" lived and acted.

A People's History of the World gives long-overdue attention to the most significant part of world history-everyday people and their connections."- Arunima Datta, Idaho State University
The illustrations, maps, and primary sources are outstanding."- Lucien Frary, Rider University
The extensive use of stories, short bios, and primary sources enriches the textbook, bringing history to life."- Patrick Mbajekwe, Norfolk State University
