by David B. Mock

On This Page

Description

Legacy of the West was designed to introduce college students in introductory surveys of European history to the heritage of Western civilization. This heritage is a multifaceted one that includes religion, philosophy, and ethics; government and law; science; and economics. The selection of readings is eclectic and challenging, as it contains the work of individuals who have profoundly influenced the development of Western culture and institutions. A balance was sought that would allow the show more largest number of selections possibly while simultaneously providing relatively extensive readings, which have undergone a limited amount of internal editing in order to allow students to follow the development of the writers' ideas. show less
