Описание: With over 200 full-colour maps and compelling text from Britain's foremost 20th Century historian, Richard Overy, the Collins Atlas of 20th Century History is an in-depth yet accessible guide to the last century. The past century has witnessed the most profound changes of any century in human history. The Collins Atlas of 20th Century History is the best guide to an incredibly eventful 100 years, a tour through ten decades of conflict, hope and innovation. The content of the book is presented here in graphic form, with maps forming the basis for examining all the century's major developments, from the height of the Imperial Age to the challenges of the post-Cold War era. The coverage is extensive, and particular attention is paid not only to the military conflicts that shaped the century, but also to the themes and challenges which faced humanity: health, the environment, education, drugs, terrorism, science and technology, telecommunications, and energy resources. With over 200 full-colour maps and compelling text from Britain's foremost 20th Century historian, Richard Overy, the Collins Atlas of 20th Century History is both a visual feast and a work of substantial scholarship.

Описание: In the years between the two great wars, the nations of the world, ravaged by war and depression, struggled to maintain a delicate peace. Torn between pressing social needs - record-setting unemployment and the threat of revolutions, Western Europe played for time in which to repair its economies and to strengthen its governments. No one wanted war: Britain was still healing the wounds of World War I; the Americans had retreated into isolation; the French were divided politically and the Soviet Union, an international outcast, was facing its own enormous problems.

Yet, determined to win the 'living space' he was convinced Germany needed, Adolf Hitler made war unavoidable, despite the pronounced reluctance of the rest of the world. Almost seventy years after the start of World War II, historians Richard Overy and Andrew Wheatcroft return to the question of why the nations of the world found themselves embroiled in conflict once more. Step by step, Overy and Wheatcroft reconstruct the perspective of each country as it marched down the road to war: Germany, Great Britain, France, Italy, the Society Union, Japan, and the United States, each with its own domestic problems and international ambitions.

Hailed in England for its accessibility as well its scholarship, "The Road to War" is a handbook for anyone interested in how way came.

Описание: Britain and the Crisis of Civilisation, 1919-1939. British intellectual life between the wars stood at the heart of modernity. This book opens a window on to this creative but anxious era, the golden age of the public intellectual and scientist: Arnold Toynbee, Aldous and Julian Huxley, H G Wells, Marie Stopes and a host of others. As Richard Overy shows, the coming of war was almost welcomed as a way to resolve the contradictions and anxieties of this period, a war in which it was believed civilization would be either saved or utterly destroyed.
