Description
Michael D. RICHARDS and Paul R. WAIBEL. Twentieth-century Europe : 1900 to the present. Hoboken, New Jersey : Wiley-Blackwell, 2024. Online resource, e-book.
The fourth edition, like those before it, is meant to be not only brief but also readable and accurate. That it is relatively brief allows for some outside readings and other assignments. That it is readable is of great importance. It is important for students and instructors to have as much common ground as possible. This helps class sessions to be informed exchanges of questions and opinions. Lastly, accuracy is fundamentally important. We have worked to create a text that provides a reliable introduction to Europe from 1900 to the present and places Europe when appropriate in a global context.
