N2  - "This distinctive primary source reader reflects the same global comparative perspective as the regular and concise editions of its companion survey. New editors Elizabeth Pollard and Clifford Rosenberg draw upon their extensive experience as teachers and researchers to improve accessibility, and include more documents of short and intermediate length. They also include more sources that are directly tied to events and developments discussed in the Worlds Together narrative. With roughly 150 primary source documents and visuals, a new casebook on 'Humans and the Environment in the Second Millennium BCE,' excellent editorial apparatus, and a deeply discounted package price, this reader remains the best value in its market"--Provided by publisher
