Publisher's Synopsis
For courses in World History
Help students make sense of the present and prepare to meet the challenges of the future
Revel(R) World Civilizations: The Global Experience presents a truly global approach to world history by discussing and comparing major societies and focusing on their interactions. Authors Peter Stearns, Michael Adas, Stuart Schwartz, and Marc Gilbert facilitate analysis of global contacts, regional patterns, and the whole process of change and continuity on a world stage. This emphasis on critical analysis helps students become active, engaged learners rather than passive consumers of historical facts. In addition to the inclusion of updated content throughout, the Eighth Edition is available for the first time via Revel, with videos, interactive maps, and quizzes integrated throughout the text.
Revel empowers students to actively participate in learning. More than a digital textbook, Revel delivers an engaging blend of author content, media, and assessment. With Revel, students read and practice in one continuous experience, anytime, anywhere, on any device.
NOTE: This Revel Combo Access pack includes a Revel access code plus a loose-leaf print reference (delivered by mail) to complement your Revel experience. In addition to this access code, you will need a course invite link, provided by your instructor, to register for and use Revel.
