The World: a pocket history
A 14-part series that attempts to make simple and accessible one of the most
complex subjects imaginable will be distributed via booklets given away free
with The Independent and The Independent on Sunday beginning
tomorrow, and will simultaneously be made available at
independent.co.uk/historyoftheworld. Starting with the origins of the
Universe itself, it traces the formation of our planet, the first stirrings
of life, the shaping of the continents, the evolution of species, the birth
of the human race, and the millennia of history that have led up to the
sophisticated but precarious civilisations of the present day.
