Editorial Reviews

Product Description
In these 4 all-new titles-each with its own clip-art CD and wall chart-DK shines its Eyewitness spotlight on vital topics from the past, present, and future. While Mesopotamia explore the cradle of civilization and Great Scientists reveals the minds that shaped the modern world, China investigates the present-day culture of the most populous country on the planet, and Oil takes a look at the controversial substance responsible for the beginning-and, if we're not careful, the end of life as we know it today.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for homeschooling, September 7, 2007
By LDB (Houston, TX USA) - See all my reviews
This book is great. I use it for homeschooling my children along with The Great Courses DVD course "Between the Rivers: Mesopotamia". It is easy to match each lecture and the page number that it correlates to in this DK book. As usual, the photography is fantastic. We watch one 30 minute lecture and read one part of the book each day and along with some extra discussions, crafts, and supplemental reading, we have a two month course on Ancient History in Mesopotamia that is top notch.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great primer on Mesopotamia, November 3, 2008
By Carrie (Cambridgeshire, UK) - See all my reviews
I bought this book as a supplement for home schooling. We have been studying Mesopotamia, but it was difficult to sort out all of the different civilizations that arose in the area. This book helps to clarify that. I also understand so much more about the region and all of its magnificent contributions to the world. I would recommend it for everyone. A great primer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good buy!, May 28, 2009
Very good illustrated introduction to Mesopotamia. I bought it because of the pictures, as a complement of my bibliography, and it works great. Has a lots of pic in great quality. Highly recomended
