Arnold Toynbee's A Study of History has been acknowledged as one of the greatest achievements of modern scholarship. A ten-volume analysis of the rise and fall of human civilizations, it is a work of breath-taking breadth and vision. D.C. Somervell's abridgement, in two volumes, of this magnificent enterprise, preserves the method, atmosphere, texture, and, in many instances, the very words of the original. Originally published in 1947 and 1957, these two volumes are themselves a great historical achievement. Volume 1, which abridges the first six volumes of Toynbee's study, includes the Introduction, The Geneses of Civilizations, and The Disintegrations of Civilizations. Volume 2, an abridgement of Volumes VII-X, includes sections on Universal States, Universal churches, Heroic Ages, Ccontacts Between Civilizations in Space, Contacts Between Civilizations in Time, Law and Freedom in History, The Prospects of the Western Civilization, and the Conclusion. Of Somervell's work, Toynbee wrote, "The reader now has at his command a uniform abridgement of the whole book, made by a clear mind that has not only mastered the contents but has entered into the writer's outlook and purpose."
居然不被主流历史学界认可了。看来现在堕落的不只是经济学。

评分汤因比全书贯穿这一种神秘主义的历史取向。指出文明的成长与衰落正是一个挑战-应战的循环往复的过程,其中的关键在于少数创造性群体能否承担其领到普罗大众进步的关键使命(也依赖于普罗大众是否能够模仿少数者的能力)。这一过程在汤因比看来恰似中国古代的阴阳相生之道。在实现统一国家、高级宗教和蛮族军事集团的EVA式的死与新生之后,只有化作人形的神灵救世主才能领导文明重新走向复苏。
