Description
The book "The Great History of the World" follows the entire story of the universe and Earth – from the Big Bang through the formation of stars, galaxies, and planets to the present day. In line with the modern historiographical concept of "big history," the author presents a view of the entire 13.8 billion years of cosmic existence from a great distance, allowing us to rise above the chaos of human events and see the overall shape and direction of history. We ourselves do not stand at the beginning or the end of this story – we have emerged in the middle of a narrative that will continue long after we disappear from the surface of the Earth. Such a perspective can evoke a sense of insignificance and transience in us, but it also reminds us of how miraculous and wonderful life is.
