| Summary, etc. |
When did people first start to wear jewelry or play music? When were cows domesticated, and why do we fed their milk to our children? Where were the first cities, and what made them succeed? Who developed math--or invented money? The history of humanity is one of invention and innovation, as we have continually created new things to use, to admire, or leave our mark on the world. In this illustrated work, Neil Macgregor of the British Museum turns to objects that previous civilizations have left behind to paint a portrait of humankind's evolution, focusing on unexpected turning points. Beginning with a chopping tool from the Olduvai Gorge in Africa and ending with a recent innovation that is transforming the way we power our world, Macgregor urges us to see history as a kaleidoscope--shifting, interconnected, and constantly surprising.--Adapted from publisher description. |
