SUBJECT A: World History
Using a narrative approach with inquiry options, this text provides\
an overview of world history in ten units. It begins with a study of pre-
historic peoples, then moves to a detailed discussion of Eastern and
Western societies, among them India, China, Japan, Turkey, Russia, and
Africa. Concluding chapters examine contemoorary domestic issues and
the roles of Africa, Asia, and Europe in the modern world. Unit reviews
encourage students to analyze and compare past and present lifestyles,
initiate projects, and read additional materials identified according to
topic. Eight maps of world regions are included at the back of the book
to facilitate map study. The book can serve as the basis for a full-year .;
course. Interesting human anecdotes and a below -grade reading level make,
, it effective fcr high school students with below- average reading ability \
A.\ 4.and minimal interest in world history.

develop understandings of and positive attitudes toward other peoplesand cultures. The use ot essays by-various authors provides a process
