Produktinformationen zu „Twentieth Century History For Dummies (ePub)“
The 20th Century brought revolutionary changes to our
world and our lives: the human population of the world tripled,
space travel became reality, two world wars and a host of other
conflicts were fought, and huge advances in science, technology and
communication resulted in the globalised world we know today.
Enormous steps were made in wiping out widespread
discrimination, from the women's suffrage movement leading to
women's right to vote in western countries, to the civil
rights movement in the US challenging racial segregation. The
political landscape has provided lots of excitement, with
charismatic and scandalous presidents in the White House, the first
female prime minister in the UK, dictators working to various
manifestoes across the world, the Middle East conflict and the
changing balance of political and economic
"superpowers".
Technological advances have resulted in nigh on universal
adoption and dependence on automobiles, computers, mobiles and
other wireless technology. The exponential rate at which technology
is evolving is one of the variables that make the twentieth century
so fascinating.
All this and much, much more happened in a mere one hundred
years - where did we find the time to do so much?!
