Jon PENNYCOOK reviewed How the World Made the West by Josephine Quinn
Review of 'How the World Made the West' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Great book. A fascinating look at how the concept of "Europe" was invented, and how most ideas of European exceptionalism before the colonial period are wrong (the relevant parts of Europe were on the periphery of where the real action was happening)
