Will illustrated and lots of text. Why do revolutions suddenly punctuate the apparent stability of states and societies? What are the roots of political and social upheaval? Why do some uprisings succeed and others fail? From popular uprisings to military coups, from civil wars to political rebellion, revolutions across the world have changed the course of history. Uprising! examines over 20 of the most dramatic and influential revolutionary events and the common strands that link them.

Very good introduction to the subject. Accessible and informative
