EH Gombrich’s "A Little History of the World" provides a comprehensive and accessible overview of world history, making it an ideal introduction for those curious about the past and how it has shaped our present. The book covers a wide range of historical events and figures, from ancient civilizations to modern times, and is written in a clear and engaging style that makes it easy to understand.

One of the book’s strengths is its focus on the interconnectedness of world events and how different cultures have influenced each other throughout history. However, it should be noted that the book primarily covers the history of high-income countries and does not provide as much detail or perspective on the history of low-income countries. Despite this limitation, "A Little History of the World" is a valuable resource for anyone looking to gain a broad understanding of world history and how it has shaped our world today. Overall I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in understanding the past and its connection to the present.

Hello

The title of this review should be "The Sense of Style"

The review talks about the book, "The Sense of Style" but the title is "The Selfish Gene".

Moreover, on the book reviews page, "The Selfish Gene" is repeated.
