Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 76
In the short century between 1914 and 1991, the world has been convulsed by two global wars that swept away millions of lives and entire systems of government. Communism became a messianic faith and then collapsed ignominiously. Peasants became city dwellers, housewives became workers - and, increasingly leaders. Populations became literate even as new technologies threatened to make print obsolete. And the driving forces of history swung from Europe to its former colonies.

Good, with a few small issues
Revisado: 05-07-22
excellent reading, and a good book overall. Not a fan of his analysis of fascism, and think he was a little too short on the first world war, and non European participation in the first half of the 20th century, which was more substantial than he seems to see.
