The People's Chronology
- Published by Gale
This new, eBook-only edition -- part of the revolutionary Gale Virtual Reference Library -- extends the scope of this popular print reference, from prehistory through 2004. With nearly 30 percent more entries than the print edition, the eBook goes beyond the wars, treatises and political events readily found in traditional history resources. And with its electronic search capabilities, users can more easily put history into context when looked alongside other topics.
Each chronological chapter is further organized by era or year, and within each year by standard subject categories. Almost every year contains entries under the following 33 standard subject categories:
- Political Events
- Human Rights, Social Justice
- Philanthropy
- Exploration, Colonization
- Commerce
- Retail, Trade
- Energy
- Transportation
- Technology
- Science
- Medicine
- Religion
- Education
- Communications, Media
- Literature
- Art
- Photography
- Theater, Film
- Music
- Sports
- Everyday Life
- Tobacco
- Crime
- Architecture, Real Estate
- Environment
- Marine Resources
- Agriculture
- Food Availability
- Nutrition
- Consumer Protection
- Food and Drink
- Restaurants
- Population
Review:
"With 30 percent more entries than the print version, the new e-book offers a "year-by-year record of human events" from prehistory through 2004."
