It tells the stories of changes in political structures, of revolutions, the expansion of global trade, and the beginnings of the industrial revolution. John O. Voll covers key individuals, from political leaders Emperor Kangxi and Catherine the Great, religious activists Jonathan Edwards and Muhammid ibn Abd al-Wahhab to entrepreneurs Mulla Abdul Ghafur and Richard Arkwright and key thinkers Isaac Newton and Immanuel Kant
