内容説明

Written by one of America's most distinguished scholars of US-East Asian relations, The World Transformed examines the history of the last half century from a truly global perspective. Organized nine chapters and an Introduction and Conclusion, The World Transformed uses three broad themes-international relations, the international economy, and the developing world-to examine change on a global scale. Divided into three Parts, the text allows for instructors to assign chapters in both chronological and topical fashion.
