The historiographic essays collected in \"Essays on Twentieth Century History\" will go a long way to filling that lacuna.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ea\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach contribution covers a key theme and one or more critical sub-fields in twentieth century global history. Chapters address migration patterns, the impact of world wars, transformations in gender and urbanization, as well as environmental transitions. All are written by leading historians in each of the sub-fields represented, and each is intended to provide an introduction to the literature, key themes, and debates that have proliferated around the more recent historical experience of humanity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Adas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1439902690\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781439902691\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Temple University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/28\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 350\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 1.10d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Michael Adas","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48065584824575,"sku":"9781439902691","price":86.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bf4e4c4a-dd6c-4d27-8583-2a0b00fdda4d.jpg?v=1768675943","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/essays-on-twentieth-century-history-michael-adas-9781439902691","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
