ISBN: 9780520282032 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) What does it mean to live in the modern world? How different is that world from those that preceded it, and when did we become modern? In Distant Strangers, James Vernon argues that the world was made modern not by revolution, industrialization, or the Enlightenment.
