Publisher's Synopsis
The three titles in this set, chosen from our imprints The Athlone Press and Pinter, go beyond the history and politics of the 20th century and consider the value of looking at politics and history using data from other disciplines to inform an understanding of large-scale global transformations. Drawing on anthropology, archaeology, economics and philosophy - to name a few - these titles help to highlight that the study of history and politics should never be considered in a vacuum but in relation to other subjects. All titles are available as set or as individual volumes. Titles include: The Waves of Time: Long-Term Change and International Relations by Ken Dark Politics and Human Nature by Ian Forbes and Steve Smith When History Accelerates: Essays on Rapid Social Change, Complexity and Creativity by C. M. Hann
