Traditions & Encounters: A Brief Global History
Word history is about both diversity and connections. We began this text with a simple goal: to help our students understand the unique histories of the world's rich variety of peoples, while at the same time allowing them to see the long histories of connections and interactions that have shaped all human communities for millenia. To do this, we have written a story around the dual themes of traditions and encounters, so that we can highlight the many different religions and customs embraced by the world's peoples while also exploring the encounters with other cultures that brought about inevitable change. It is the interaction of these traditions and encounters that provides the key to making sense of our past. Human communities furthered themselves not by remaining isolated, but by interacting with others and exploring the benefits and risks of reaching out.
