In this well-known, best-selling book M S Anderson explores the major aspects of European history in the century from the Congress of Vienna to the First World War. More than a narrative of political or other events, this is a series of challenging analytical surveys on a comparative and continent-wide basis. The Ascendancy of Europe, 1815-1914 gives full weight not only to political and economic factors but also to social and intellectual ones.
For the third edition, Professor Anderson has reworked the text, added a new preface and revised introduction and has updated the bibliography.
M S Anderson is Professor Emeritus of International History in the University of London. His many works include, The Origins of the Modern European State System (1998), Peter the Great (1995) and Europe in the Eighteenth Century (1997).
