Wonderful
I haven't started to read this book yet, so i am not commenting about the book content.
Flipkart delivered the book in time, but it looks little old. Pages are more like a photocopy type, don't know it is a original copy or not.
Cover page is also different from what FK had shown.

Must Book For UPSC
This is a must book for GS Paper 1 for UPSC. Its a one time investment. Don't Think much, buy it. The explanation given is very easy to understand. Book by Arjun Dev is very Boring to read, though a thin book, but I too found it boring and not upto the level for writing mains' analytical answers.
Plz don't rely on many books just stick to NCERT( for events before the era (industrial revolution, imperialism etc.) and this book; for World History.
All the best :)
