Used successfully by over one million students, Western Civilizations is renowned for its balanced presentation, clear prose, and exceptional treatment of the West in a global context.
Building on these strengths, Coffin and Stacey have delivered a new, carefully revised edition that draws upon their own practical teaching experience while integrating new and emerging research in the field. In addition, the Sixteenth Edition includes new "Transformations" sections that ask students to reflect on major turning points in history (such as the Black Death or the emergence of the Abolition movement). Also new to this edition are document questions that help students make connections between primary and secondary materials.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Speedy and well protected,
This review is from: Western Civilizations: Their History and Their Culture, Vol. 2 (Paperback)
The text was sent immediately after I placed the order and I received it within a few days (I believe 3 or 4 days). The packaging design protected the textbook quite well so it is a huge plus to order your text through them. The price for a new version a text is only slightly more expensive, but definitely worth it. Overall, I highly recommend them.
