sure (thx!) forgot to add the period... from ancient times to now
please indicate which period.

it is even better, if ancient, medieval, modern these in a package. easier to read as they are in a similar writting parttern/ style/ arrangement..

Roger Osborne既<Civilization:a New History of the Western World>..今日出..亦密切期侍中

How We Came To Be
A wide-ranging and thought-provoking history of western civilization.

Through a vivid and dramatic interrogation of the past, this book examines and illuminates the nature of Western civilization from its earliest incarnations to the present.

Sweeping in its scope and comprehensive in its coverage, Civilization covers everything from the siege of Troy to the Gettysburg address, from Charlemagne to the European Union and from Aristotle to John Rawls. Filled with voices of the past including Herodotus, Pericles, Cicero, St Paul, Plotinus, St Augustine, Boccaccio, Machiavelli, Cervantes, Locke, Voltaire, Jefferson, Gibbon, Darwin, Marx, Weber, Roosevelt and Arendt ?the book ends with an assessment of the present state of Western civilization in the light of its past and an indication of how it might go about the urgent task of renewing itself.

At such a dangerous time in the world's history this remarkable and compelling book is required reading.
