Critical Acclaim
''This is a valuable and substantially updated edition. Ming Wan offers a discerning framework; consistent and easy-to-grasp evolutionary trends from the 19th century to the present day; insightful maps and data; and deep sensitivity to both regional trends and discrete national idiosyncrasies. Students and instructors alike will welcome its publication.''
