Available in the following split options: VOYAGES IN WORLD HISTORY, Third Edition Complete, Volume 1: To 1600, and Volume 2: Since 1500. “Complex Societies and the Discipline of History,“ a new section at the start of Chapter 2, introduces students to historical method and the nature of sources. New travelers in Volume 1 include China‘s Grand Historian Sima Qian, who lived during the Han dynasty; and Spanish pilgrim Egeria, who from 381 to 384 traveled from the Roman empire‘s western edge to Jerusalem, Egypt, and Constantinople. New travelers in Volume 2 include Rammohun Roy, a prominent Indian reformer and figure in the Bengal Renaissance; and anarchist Emma Goldman, who brings an in-depth look at a radical view of women‘s issues in the early 20th century. New and revised “Visual Evidence in Primary Sources“ and “Movement of Ideas Through Primary Sources“ features freshen the content in several chapters. These features teach analytical skills and promote critical thinking by inviting students to compare viewpoints. New material on women includes a new section on the changing lives of women in China‘s commercial revolution (Volume 1), and greater emphasis on women‘s leadership in the survey of contemporary affairs (Volume 2). Complemented by new inserts within the chapter narrative, the end-of-chapter “Context and Connections“ include essays and timelines that will help students see the big picture in global terms. “Movement of Ideas Through Primary Sources“ and “Visual Evidence in Primary Sources“ features teach students how to analyze historical evidence in textual and visual sources. “World History in Today‘s World“ essays show students how historical developments relate to current issues. Student-friendly pedagogical features include chapter outlines, focus questions, bolded key terms, an on-page glossary, and pronunciation guides.
