Editorial Reviews:
Review:

"[C]harming and admirably lucid...It is sometimes witty....What is very pleasing is the good humour and generosity of tone displayed throughout....I doubt if it could be bettered....I wish it had been available when I was young."

Alan Massie, Literary Review, September, 2005

Review:

"[A] timeless and engaging narrative of the human race."

George Cohen, Booklist, 09/15/2005

Book Description: Yale University Press, United States, 2005. Hardback. Book Condition: New. Clifford Harper (illustrator). Reprint, Translation. 216 x 138 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. In 1935, with a doctorate in art history and no prospect of a job, the 26-year-old Ernst Gombrich was invited to attempt a history of the world for younger readers. Amazingly, he completed the task in an intense six weeks, and "Eine kurze Weltgeschichte fur junge Leser" was published in Vienna to immediate success, and is now available in twenty-five languages across the world. In forty concise chapters, Gombrich tells the story of man from the stone age to the atomic bomb. In between emerges a colourful picture of wars and conquests, grand works of art, and the spread and limitations of science. This is a text dominated not by dates and facts, but by the sweep of mankind's experience across the centuries, a guide to humanity's achievements and an acute witness to its frailties.The product of a generous and humane sensibility, this timeless account makes intelligible the full span of human history.
