媒体推荐 Madgwick's exploration of ancient civilizations shows us that advanced as we imagine ourselves to be, there is a good chance that the Egyptians, the Phoenicians, the Romans or the Greeks thought it before. The Egyptians introduced hieroglyphics - writing in pictures - played board games and built the awe inspiring pyramids, while the Greeks excelled in sport, and at the arts. The Roman Empire, in one sense so sophisticated with its piped water, central heating and great architectural monuments, on the other so backward with its circuses involving lions and gladiators, gets four pages to itself. This volume whets our appetite for more information about the foundations of the modern world. (Kirkus UK)
