World in Motion offers a new and thought-provoking vision of world history through a focus on movement and change across various facets of human experience, including migration, trade, culture, identity, biology, and the environment.
World in Motion reconceptualizes the presentation of world history through the perspective of three key ideas:
- Everything moves: From people, to goods, to ideas, and even the environment—nothing stays still.
- Identities are in motion: People don’t only move physically and genetically; their constructions of culture and self are also in constant motion.
- History itself is in motion: Our ability to research and reconstruct the past has improved, and so our understanding of the past is in a state of constant change.
These themes are enhanced and extended in every chapter of World in Motion via such features as targeted Content Questions, Journal Prompts, informational sidebars, and numerous maps and illustrations. Free and easily accessible online supplemental materials—including primary source excerpts, supplementary readings, videos, and more—create in-depth opportunities for students to explore the book’s organizing idea of motion.
