Summary, etc. | The West's history is one of extraordinary success; no other region, empire, culture, or civilization has left so powerful a mark upon the world. The Rise of Western Power charts the West's achievements--representative government, the free enterprise system, modern science, and the rule of law--as well as its misdeeds--two frighteningly destructive World Wars, the Holocaust, imperialistic domination, and the Atlantic slave trade. Adopting a global perspective, Jonathan Daly explores the contributions of other cultures and civilizations to the West's emergence. Historical, geographical, and cultural factors all unfold in the narrative. Adopting a thematic structure, the book traces the rise of Western power through a series of revolutions--social, political, technological, military, commercial, and industrial, among others. The result is a clear and engaging introduction to the history of Western civilization. |
