  An introduction to world history since 1945, this traces the major national and international developments of the period. It is intended for students from the Sixth Form up and for the general reader. The main arenas of world affairs - eastern and western Europe, the Soviet Union and the USA, Africa and the Middle East, the Indian subcontinent and the Far East, and the ASEAN countries - are covered separately, while the final section draws together many strands to give an international overview of the period. The work of international institutions and phases in international relations are considered here. The text is supported by maps, diagrams, cartoons, and a selection of key documents reprinted at the end of each chapter. The author has written many books of general history, biographies and textbooks, including World History in the Twentieth Century and Europe since 1945 .
