The Human Adventure is an introductory world history textbook which draws on concepts from the social sciences to help students understand the sequence of western civilization from prehistoric hunting groups to the modern world. Considerable emphasis is on economics, geography, law, government, sociology, anthropology and the arts. The relationship between human beings and the environment is also examined. At the end of each chapter is an individual and group inquiry module with an in-depth utilization of the chapter's text, its ideas and their relationship to the student's frame of reference and previous knowledge.
