Leften Stavros Stavrianos (1913 – March 23, 2004) was a Greek-Canadian historian. His most influential books are considered to be A Global History: From Prehistory to the 21st Century and The Balkans since 1453. He was one of the very first historians to challenge Orientalist views of the Ottoman Empire.
Stavrianos was born in Vancouver, Canada in 1913. He received a B.A. in history from the University of British Columbia, and a M.A. and Ph.D. from Clark University in Worcester, Massachusetts.
Stavrianos joined the faculty of Queens University in Kingston, Ontario and Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts. He then became a professor at Northwestern University in 1946. After retiring from Northwestern in 1973, Stavrianos joined the University of California, San Diego Department of History until 1992.
Designed for courses in World History and World Civilization, this best-selling, classic exploration of world history takes an interdisciplinary global (rather than a regional or national) approach–tracing those major forces, movements, and events that have had a world-wide impact. It stresses connections between the past, present and future, emphasizing the question “What does it mean for us today?” The Seventh Edition reevaluates the course of human history with an eye toward the millennium, reflecting in its coverage the end of the cold war and the dawning possibilities for a new type of global history.

我們所學習過的曆史,都很奇怪,注重細節,例如時間、地點、主要人物等,卻沒有什麼連貫性。曆史在我們眼裏,跟“洋片”差不多,是割斷的、靜態的、前後沒有關聯的。而這部《全球通史》,卻展示瞭我們似乎學習過,卻從未真正明白過的曆史,即這些片段串成的序列,一部本來完整...

評分A Global History
評分通史畢竟不是某一國某一朝的曆史,所以需要典型,詳略要得當。不過畢竟是西方人寫的,書中的預期還是有些俯視性,介紹歐洲文明之外的文明有失偏頗。

評分這本書也注定要多讀幾遍
