Kenneth L. Campbell is Professor of History at Monmouth University, USA. He is the author of Western Civilization: A Global and Comparative Approach: Volume II: Since 1600 (2015).

Understanding our increasingly globalized and interconnected world requires students to make comparisons—across time and between peoples, cultures, regions, and countries. The story of Western Civilization remains vital and fascinating, and Ken Campbell makes it vastly more relevant and enlightening by partially breaching the artificial barriers between the Western Civ, United States, and world history surveys. Insightful comparisons throughout and the inclusion of one or more well-chosen non-European sources per chapter help students see how all are interrelated and mutually influencing. Campbell’s introductions and questions are truly illuminating. This is an excellent sourcebook.
