Gordon's survey of the topic makes it clear that slavery in the Americas can be understood much better if we put it in this larger context; in terms of both time and place. His chapters on East African and Mediterranean slavery are especially valuable; since these were contemporary with so-called Atlantic slavery and can provide students with valid points of comparison; revealing both the similarities and the variable nature of early-modern bondage. The final chapter is especially timely; reminding readers that much of what we think of as enslavement hasn't really gone away; but simply slipped below the radar of the world media. All in all; Gordon makes it clear that; though it has arisen in different guises and at many different times and places; slavery has been and remains deeply rooted in human society. A rewarding introduction for anyone looking to better understand slavery as a world-wide institution. —Robert Davis; The Ohio State University
