The Columbia History of the World is a unique volume which begins with the formation of the universe and covers every major aspect of human history to the present day. Forty Columbia professors in the departments of history, political science, economics, sociology, philosophy, astronomy, geology, biology, and anthropology contributed sections on their particular subjects and periods. Integrating this material, Professors Garraty and Gay have produced a narrative history of the world which is both an authoritative reference work and a fascinating book to read for pleasure.
The editors, in their Introduction, say, "hard as it is to write, and largely for that reason, world history is important, even essential, to us.

We Westerners need to know more about the world of which we are inextricably a part, just as the rest of the world needs to know more about us, and for the same reason. The obvious solution is a collaborative effort, one that brings together the special knowledge of many experts, and this is what we have attempted "
In his Foreword, President William J. McGill comments, "We find a balanced and judicious distillation of historical knowledge that is the characteristic mark of open minds. These are not ideologists seeking to convert naive readers to preordained views. We have here only wisdom and clarity, characteristics that have illuminated the various departments at Columbia University for more than a century. It is Columbia's history of the world offered without affectation or presumption." Vissza
