For over four thousand years the Near East and Mediterranean saw a succession of great civilisations and competing empires. Their political organisation, religious and philosophical ideas, scientific, cultural and aesthetic achievements have provided the foundations of much of modern Western and Islamic civilisation. This book provides a continuous history of these civilisations and their interrelationships.
