Description and Table of Contents
Description
THE HUMAN RECORD is a leading primary source reader for world history, providing balanced coverage of the global past. Each volume contains a blend of visual and textual sources that are often paired or grouped together for comparison, as in the Multiple Voices feature. A prologue entitled Primary Sources and How to Read Them serves as a tool that helps you approach, and get the most from, each document. Approximately one-third of the sources in the Eighth Edition are new, and these documents continue to reflect the myriad experiences of the peoples of the world.
