    Summary:

    Who was the first black queen? How much do you know about China's history? Most people's knowledge of world history is hazy and incomplete at best. This updated No-Nonsense Guide gives a full picture, revealing the hidden histories and communities left out of conventional textbooks - from the civilizations of Africa, Asia and Latin America to the history of women. This updated and revised edition of one of the best-selling No-Nonsense Guides includes a new chapter from the perspective of the end of the first decade of the 21st century and includes material on the financial crisis and the world response to climate change. A perfect read for someone who wants to embrace the whole of history, rather than disconnected dynasties and events, all in one slim volume.
