Recommendation
This collection of essays by 17 contributors offers a broad, though Eurocentric, survey of issues involved in Asia’s emergence. The essays are uneven in quality, as might be expected. The best treatises break through the boundaries of conventional thinking about Asia to reveal new possibilities, challenges and implications. Even the mediocre essayists here manage to, at least, raise interesting questions for the attentive reader. Although the book is tricky to navigate due to the omission of bibliographical information for each author alongside his or her chapter, getAbstract thinks it is often stimulating, seldom dull and well worth tucking into your briefcase for perusal – for example, on a long flight to Beijing.
