From the Inside Flap
Arthur Cotterell condenses into a compact book an immense amount of historical knowledge, placing the remarkable economic boom of Japan, Korea and China in its proper perspective ? an Asian one. From the dawn of Chinese civilization to Japan?s emergence as the first East Asian nation to develop an industrial economy, he brings history up to the present, examining the USA?s setbacks in the Korean and Vietnam Wars, Japan?s rise as an economic superpower, and the recent histories of countries such as reunited Vietnam and Singapore.
From the Back Cover
“Richly informative... an illuminating and valuable guide to the history of a region that has at last – in Mao Zedong’s claim for China – ‘stood up’.” – TLS
