Among the Waves of Globalisation: An Economic History of the World. E-book. Formato EPUB Andrea Colli   -  Giappichelli Editore, 2025  - 

Among the Waves of Globalisation is an introduction to global economic history. It is designed for those approaching the subject for the first time as well as readers looking for a concise and up-to-date synthesis that reflects the latest developments in international research. The book begins with an exploration of pre-industrial economies, then examines the transformative impact of the Industrial Revolution. Finally, it delves into the period stretching from the first major wave of economic globalisation in the late 19th century to the second, which began in the early 21st century and is now (perhaps) in crisis.
