Description
"The Silk Roads: A New History of the World" by Peter Frankopan redefines the narrative of world history, placing the Silk Roads at its center. Through a series of engaging narratives, Frankopan illustrates how the Silk Roads served as the lifeline of global trade and cultural exchange for centuries. He explores the rise and fall of empires, the spread of religions and ideologies, and the exchange of goods and ideas along these ancient trade routes. Frankopan argues that the Silk Roads were not merely conduits for commerce but also catalysts for innovation, cultural exchange, and geopolitical shifts. By reframing world history through the lens of the Silk Roads, Frankopan offers a more inclusive and interconnected perspective that highlights the contributions of diverse civilizations and cultures to the development of human civilization.
