This is an educational book for World History students. The world history from 1500 AD to 2000 AD is given in this book. Basically it is designed exactly as per UPSC (Union Public Service Commission of India) syllabus, so it very helpful for civil services aspirants.
Not recommended for general reading. Meant for in detail analysis of the various events in world History. Great writing which makes it a very interesting book to read.
it goes deeper in every aspect of the historical event. It gives lots of data about timeline. If you have a time and interest in world history then go for it.
