Review: The Silk Roads by Peter Frankopan (2018x57)

Data emisji: Gru 01, 2018

For over a millennium, the domain between East and West, linking the Pacific with Europe through land and sea, served as the world’s central nervous system. In The Silk Roads: A New History of the World, Peter Frankopan recalibrates our understanding of history and describes how the Silk Road network facilitated the movement of people, goods, ideas, conflict, disease, etc, and essentially drafted Western civilization as we know it.
