[Xmca-l] Book about history

[Wagner Luiz Schmit]

Following Vygotsky's idea that to comprehend human development
Ontogenesis, it is important to comprehend it from a  Phylogenesis
and, as put by Andy Blunden, Ethnogenesis and Sociogenesis (I think
Vygotsky used Cultural) perspective also, I am waiting for the arrival
of my copy of  "A people's history of the world" by Chris Harman.

I was also pointed out to this:
http://www.counterfire.org/index.php/articles/212-books/16337-a-marxist-history-of-the-world-from-neanderthals-to-neoliberals

Any one knows this work? Any reviews? critics?

It is avaliable online here:

Thank you very much

Wagner
