Sinossi
Scopri come gli esseri umani hanno creato il loro mondo dagli oggetti che hanno lasciato dietro di sé, dalla Costituzione degli Stati Uniti al primo iPhone, nell'ultimo libro di storia di DK. Fin dall'inizio della storia umana, l'unica cosa che ci ha definito .È il nostro talento nel creare cose, dalla tecnologia di base e oggetti di uso quotidiano, come ciotole e asce a mano, alle invenzioni high tech, come aerei supersonici, dispositivi intelligenti e rover su Marte. Gli oggetti parlano molto di una civiltà, raccontandoci come vivevano i nostri antenati, così come in cosa credevano e cosa apprezzavano. Una mummia di gatto in bronzo ci mostra quanto gli antichi egizi apprezzassero i loro compagni felini, mentre un giocattolo meccanico a forma di tigre racconta la storia delle crescenti tensioni tra un sultano indiano e i coloni europei. Con splendide fotografie appositamente commissionate, Civilization ti mostra gli oggetti che i nostri antenati custodivano gelosamente, dai gioielli indossati dai Mesopotamici ai preziosi vasi rituali usati dalle persone della dinastia Shang, e ti offre uno spaccato di ciò che ha dato a ogni cultura la propria identità. Dagli astrolabi agli aeroplani, dagli aspirapolvere ai raggi X, DK usa il suo stile visivo distintivo per intrecciare la straordinaria eredità della nostra creatività in una visione unica della storia mondiale che cambierà il modo in cui vediamo gli oggetti che ci circondano.

Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
hardcover. Condizione: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only. Codice articolo mon0000041218
