Cover; Title; Copyright; Contents; List of Figures, Maps, and Tables; Preface; Acknowledgments; PART ONE: OVERVIEW; 1. Introduction: World History and Environmental History; 2. The Big Story: Human History, Energy Regimes, and the Environment; 3. Toward a Global System of Property Rights in Land; PART TWO: RIVERS, REGIONS, AND DEVELOPMENTALISM; 4. The Transformation of the Middle Eastern Environment, 1500 B.C.E.-2000 C.E.; 5. The Transformation of China's Environment, 1500-2000; 6. The Rhine as a World River.

Since around 1500 C.E., humans have shaped the global environment in ways that were previously unimaginable. Bringing together leading environmental historians and world historians, this book offers an overview of global environmental history throughout this remarkable 500-year period. In eleven essays, the contributors examine the connections between environmental change and other major topics of early modern and modern world history: population growth, commercialization, imperialism, industrialization, the fossil fuel revolution, and more. Rather than attributing environmental change largely.
