    Jennifer L Rowan

    Hardcover (Mason Crest Publishers, Jan. 1, 2019)
    "The United Kingdom's status as a world power dates back hundreds of years. With an empire that once spanned the globe, British influence over global economics and diplomacy shaped the histories of North America, Africa, Asia, and Australia. Today, the United Kingdom remains a key world power, exerting influence over international affairs. In recent years, governmental decisions about economic policy and diplomatic and military intervention around the world have prompted conflict among citizens and residents. The future of the United Kingdom's participation in the European Union came under debate as the 2010s progressed, and the ensuing Brexit referendum and negotiations have thrown the fate of the United Kingdom's constituency countries into doubt. Thisbook will help you understand the rich history of the United Kingdom and how that history has shaped its current government, policy, and place in world affairs."--
