Item description from seller

Fine Condition in Fine DJ, appears unread, no markings. 26 Pages Preface, Contents and Introduction, main text 707 Pages. Originally a series of BBC radio broadcasts, A History of the World in 100 Objects explores objects from prehistory through 2010 CE, including a 2-million-year-old chopping tool, a Welsh gold cape, a mummy coffin, a seated Buddha from Pakistan, and the double-headed Aztec serpent on the book cover. Former director of the British Museum Neil MacGregor engages readers with witty, concise writing that illuminates the intersecting stories of each object with a diverse crowd of experts. "An enthralling and profoundly humane book that every civilized person should read." The Wall Street Journal.
