Written for the student of history and the general reader, this study of the civilization of the ancient Near East brings together the findings of historians, anthropologists, linguists, geographers, art historians, scientists, and other specialists. It begins with an examination of prehistory, and then focuses on social and cultural themes while broadly outlining Near Eastern political and military developments.

If I ever get my time machine built, I'm heading to 2350 B.C.E. to wipe out Akkadia and the Levant, and Africa. Good overview book, and cheaper than Routledge's version.
