Neil McGregor

A History of the World in 100 objects

Penguin, 2012

A sweeping history of humanity through the things people and cultures have produced. This book written by the director of the British Museum roams through every corner of the globe to illustrate how making has served people to shape the world we live in today. An intellectual and visual feast about how we have communicated, traded, and fought.
