Violent, powerful, vast: the British Empire is typically viewed as distant and tropical. By contrast, this book examines the effects of the empire on men, women and children across the globe: both those under imperial rule and those who implemented it. Looking beyond politics and diplomacy, Philippa Levine combines a traditional approach to colonial history with an investigation of the experience of living within the empire. Spanning the period from Cromwell's rule to decolonization in the late twentieth century, and including an extensive chronology for ease of reference, Levine considers the impact of British rule for people in Africa, India and Australia, as well as for the English rulers, and for the Welsh, Scots and Irish who were subject to 'internal colonialism' under the English yoke. Imperialism often led to serious unrest; Levine examines the cruel side of imperialism's purportedly 'civilizing' mission unflinchingly.

有人說這本書裏很多錯誤，見到一位尊敬的老學者，顫顫巍巍卻無比氣憤地揮舞這本被他邊貼標簽的書，每一個標簽就是一個錯誤。但可惜的是，就衝一開頭作者大膽的提齣 internal colonization這個概念，我就少不經事的佩服。

评分有些章節的內部結構散亂，結論多不給來源甚至不正確，但總體來說大英帝國的諸多核心問題，美國獨立，經濟重心遷移，去殖民化過程講的還算清楚 Further reading章節幫助更大
