A History of Inner Asia
A History of Inner Asia
Cambridge University Press | ISBN: 0521657040 | 2000 | PDF | 381 p. | 2.5 MB
“This accessible introduction to Inner Asia traces its history from the arrival of Islam, through the various dynasties to the Russian conquest. The contemporary focus rests on the seven countries that make up present-day Eurasia: Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Sinkiang and Mongolia. Since the fall of the Soviet Union, renewed interest in these countries has prompted considerable debate. While a divergent literature has evolved, no comprehensive survey of the region exists. This book will fill the gap and become indispensable for anyone studying or visiting the area.
"...eminently readable, often fascinating, and full of quirky but thought-provoking angles on the region's history..." Journal of World History
