Now updated ' the one-stop guide to signifi cant events in world history.

It features new coverage of signifi cant events that have reshaped the modern world: the events of September 11, 2001; the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq; recent responses to climate change; the rise of China, India and Brazil as world economic powers; and the natural disasters of Hurricane Katrina and the tsunami that devastated Sri Lanka and Indonesia.
