I have pleasure in placing before our esteemed readers the Second Edition of History of Modern World (1900-1960). A careful and thorough revision of the First Edition was undertaken to make the book richer in content,clearer in meaning and more useful to readers. While all chapters have been thoroughly revised, the chapters on the two World Wars, Bolshevik Revolution, the UNO and the role of the Super Powers have commanded special attention.
