【内容简介】

《人类的故事（英文版）》上起远古，从埃及和美索不达米亚文明的发端，历数爱琴海文明、印度文明、中国文明以及古罗马文明，并以基督教的兴起为线索论述中世纪社会的发展和演变，勾勒出城市的兴起、文艺复兴乃至近代国家的形成，荤荦大端，各有条理。在追溯一些主要国家的历史脉络的同时，作者讲述了许多重要历史人物的故事，品评他们的功过得失，给全书增添了不小的趣味性。房龙对东西方各种文明都有深入的研究，而且生当一、二次世界大战的乱世，他始终关注的一个问题便足各种文明之间如何才能破除此疆彼界，达到相互宽容与理解。在这《人类的故事（英文版）》中，房龙展示了一幅宏大的历史画卷，请读者站在人类发展的顶点，俯瞰这条奔腾不息的历长河。房龙一生博学多能，他的许多图书都自画插图，图与文相得益彰。
