Oxford's Atlas of World History is the result of years of intensive work by a specialist team of scholars, editors, and cartographers. It presents the story of humanity in its physical setting, from the emergence of the earliest hominoids to the present day. Truly international in scope, the atlas incorporates the latest research into Asian, African, and Central and South American history, as well as the traditional core of North American and European events.

The Atlas includes sections on the Ancient World, Medieval World, Early Modern World, Age of Revolutions, and the Twentieth Century and Beyond. Each section opens with an introduction that highlights the main socioeconomic, cultural and religious themes of the period, followed by spreads of maps, text, illustrations and captions that discuss specific regions and eras. Spreads depict everything from hunting in Africa in 10,000 BC to the kingdoms of Southeast Asia in the earliest years of the millennium, the decline of the Byzantine Empire, the growth of the Atlantic economies in the 18th century, and standards of living since 1945.

The Atlas features some 450 vivid full-color maps illustrating the major themes and events of world history, 100 photographs, 60 diagrams and hundreds of thousands of words of explanatory text. Unique for such an atlas, the entire work is thoroughly cross-referenced, allowing the reader to move backwards and forwards in time or across the world from region to region, following themes or lines of inquiry across pages.

The new edition brings the Atlas into the 21st Century and up to the present day. New and updated maps and illustrations cover a wide range of evolving subjects such as population changes, international trading, urbanization, political and economic developments, literacy rates, the concentration of world languages, and many more important and always timely subjects. Coverage of Africa, South Asia, Eastern Europe, and every other part of the world is revisited and updated, making this the most up-to-date atlas of world history available, in addition to being the most complete.

A comprehensive index of more than 8,000 entries includes numerous alternative name forms used over the centuries. The Atlas of World History closes with a bibliography that provides a booklist for suggested further reading. Equally well-suited for a general audience and students of history or international relations, the Atlas of World History continues Oxford's presence as the premier publisher of world atlases.

Clean Your Purse
Color: Pink
This ball is pretty cool. It acts like a lint roller inside your purse getting all the dirt, crumbs, & lint that accumulates at the bottom. When it's looking nasty, you can rinse it off in the sink & it's good to go back in your purse. It's one of my best Amazon purchases and I will probably buy again if/when the sticky wears off or having a spare on hand.

Mixed Results - Sauberkugel Clean Ball Review
Color: Bag Petrol
I purchased the Sauberkugel Clean Ball in Teal to help keep my bags clean from dust, dirt, and crumbs, and while it had some positive aspects, I can only give it a moderate 3-star rating due to a few shortcomings. On the plus side, the concept of the sticky inside ball is ingenious and showed promise. It did manage to pick up some dust and small particles (including glitter) from my purse which was a relief. The teal color is cute and made it easier to spot in a bag. However, there were some limitations that affected its overall effectiveness. *It seemed to struggle with picking up certain types of debris, particularly larger crumbs, heavier dirt, and ever some larger glitter/confetti pieces. This inconsistency was a bit disappointing as I had hoped based on the ads for it to be much more effective. *Another major issue I encountered was the difficulty of opening and cleaning the ball. The design was supposed to make it relatively easy to open and clean (as the ads lead me to believe). However I was unable to get the ball unlatched - which made it quite challenging to clean fully. It was frustrating to wrestle with the ball and being unable open to clean it out fully. In summary, while the Sauberkugel Clean Ball had its merits and did manage to capture some unwanted particles, it fell short in terms of consistency and ease of use. The struggle to open and clean the ball was a significant drawback for me.
