{"product_id":"africa-in-world-history-william-hardy-mcneill-9780977015993","title":"Africa in World History","description":"Africa stretches across more than 11 million square miles, from the Sahara and Sahel in the north to the mineral-resource-rich south, the endangered rainforests of the west, and the Serengeti savannas of the east. Fossils from Ethiopia tell us that the human species originated in Africa, and scholars have different theories about the journey out of Africa made by Homo sapiens some 60,000 years ago. Today, Africa is home to over 1 billion people speaking more than a thousand different languages. \"Africa in World History\" stresses Africa's interrelatedness to other regions and cultures, from early trade routes, the arrival of Christianity and Islam, and the ramifications of colonialism to contemporary issues such as HIV\/AIDS and apartheid that have thwarted Africa's efforts to establish unity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e William Hardy McNeill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0977015998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780977015993\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Berkshire Publishing Group LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/02\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.84lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.46d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2011 pg. 103","brand":"William Hardy McNeill","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47520307642623,"sku":"9780977015993","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_db7a07ba-a4f7-4c2f-a2c0-3dd089b5ad41.jpg?v=1762884806","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/africa-in-world-history-william-hardy-mcneill-9780977015993","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
