Brief Histories of Almost Anything
Группа авторов
Here are fifty concise, entertaining histories on a broad, eclectic range of ideas (borders, feminism), global issues (migration, world trade), commodities (bananas, jeans), regions (Africa, Ireland), and institutions (corporations, the World Bank).
Lucid and irreverent,
Brief Histories of Almost Anything
challenges common perceptions associated with the subjects by going behind the facts. Each history has been selected from the
New Internationalist
magazine, a leading authority on alternative history and “Best International Coverage” winner in the
Utne Reader
Independent Press Awards.
Edited by
Chris Brazier , author of the best-selling
