Neil MacGregor\u2019s <\/strong>A History of the World in 100 Objects<\/a><\/strong> is the story of\u2026 well, <\/strong> us. <\/strong>This eye opening \u2014 and absurdly entertaining \u2014 exploration of human history and culture uses the lens of material artifacts to tell us about our past, from antiquity until quite recently. In a novel approach to understanding our human experience, MacGregor selects 100 objects from various periods and cultures to tell our story: From a two-mn-year-old Olduvai stone chopping tool to the contemporary credit card, each object is a focal point to unraveling the intricate narrative of its own time. But the curation of the objects isn\u2019t just random: MacGregor reveals the interconnectedness of civilizations and shared experiences through the carefully selected items. He works on contextualizing them in a framework of historical, social, and cultural significance. Beautiful illustrations and photographs accompany the text, making it easy to appreciate the details of each object \u2014 ones that we may not have been able to ever see otherwise. The author\u2019s approach is uniquely compassionate, fostering a sense of empathy and kinship with our ancestors through seemingly mundane objects. If you are a history aficionado or want to include a visually-pleasing table top read, pick up this book.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
