  In 1640 Europe was a term without precise political significance. In the ensuing years the idea of Europe came to mean more. The Making of Modern Europe 1648-1780 is a thoroughly comprehensive account of this period. It:
  * traces the evolution of the developing society
  * presents detailed studies of the people, their environment, attitudes and beliefs
  * examines economic aspects
  * focuses on the growth of states
  * addressses issues of politics, war and diplomacy
  * includes chapters on religion, intellectualism and science
  The work provides an excellent basis for the study of seventeenth and eighteenth-century European history.
