Synopsis
The world since 1945 has witnessed fundamental changes, notably the increasing influence of the Westparticularly the United Statesin a variety of spheres, the emergence and collapse of the USSR, the end of colonial empires in Asia and Africa, and the escalation of wars and other conflicts in the Third World. In this brilliantly incisive and highly readable third edition to his survey, T. E. Vadney examines the key eventsin Afghanistan, Algeria, China, Cuba, Iraq, Iran, Nicaragua, Vietnam, Yugoslavia, and elsewherewithout ever neglecting the underlying global trends.
