The book is excellent. It provides information about world history that is not widely known. As the title suggests, it is a brief history of the world, so it does not include all the events that have occurred, but it covers the most important ones. If I found one negative about this book, it is the fact that it only touches on World War II superficially (but the author explains why he does not go into depth) and that in the middle of the book it gets a bit tiring with the amount of information given about the Popes. In short, if you ask for my opinion, I say you should get it!

A remarkable book as it presents people and events that are not taught in our own History... It is enjoyable to read, written in short chapters, and does not tire with characters and dates.... Someone who is interested in and reads History will love it...

A relaxing book that describes a very large part of human history in a light-hearted way. I give it 4 stars because in some cases the description of certain events seemed too simplified. However, it is very easy to read.

Interesting book from which you definitely learn things you didn't know about the history of humanity. Written in a smart and engaging way that keeps your interest.
