"Forging the Modern World offers a succinct introduction to the modern era in world history, and manages to do so without engaging in oversimplification. The authors convey this history while simultaneously providing useful lessons about how professional historians research, write, and debate understandings of the past, making it not only an accessible primer in world history but also an introduction to the historical profession."--Christopher Ferguson, Auburn University "Forging the Modern World is among the best modern world history books on the market today. It is well written, concise, and focuses on the key historical processes that have shaped the modern world. It also comes with a relatively low price, which helps students on a tight budget."--J. Justin Castro, Arkansas State University "Forging the Modern World's major strength is its accessibility for students. The narrative is concise and readable yet still does a wonderful job of including major scholarship and relevant interpretation. I know my students are reading this book-for the first time in years, students are making comments or asking questions in class that refer to material in the text. This allows for classroom discussions and opportunities for me to expand on topics that students would have glazed over in previous texts."--Suzanne Shoaf Smith, Cape Fear Community College, "Forging the Modern World offers a succinct introduction to the modern era in world history, and manages to do so without engaging in oversimplification.
