Home Is not Here (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by NUS Press, Singapore, 2025
ISBN 10: 9813252901 ISBN 13: 9789813252905
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. As someone who has studied history for much of my life, I have found the past fascinating. But it has always been some grand and even intimidating universe that I wanted to unpick and explain to myself. Wang Gungwu is one of Asia's most important public intellectuals. He is best-known for his explorations of Chinese history in the long view, and for his writings on the Chinese diaspora. With Home is Not Here, the historian of grand themes turns to a single life history: his own. Wang writes about his multicultural upbringing and life under British rule. He was born in Surabaya, Java, but his parents' orientation was always to China. Wang grew up in the plural, multi-ethnic town of Ipoh, Malaya (now Malaysia). He learned English in colonial schools and was taught the Confucian classics at home. After the end of WWII and Japanese occupation, he left for the National Central University in Nanjing to study alongside some of the finest of his generation of Chinese undergraduates. The victory of Mao Zedong's Communist Party interrupted his education, and he ends this volume with his return to Malaya. Wise and moving, this is a fascinating reflection on family, identity, and belonging, and on the ability of the individual to find a place amid the historical currents that have shaped Asia and the world. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Hong Kongs Transition
Language: English
Published by Oxford University Press, 1995
ISBN 10: 0195874005 ISBN 13: 9780195874006
Hardback. Condition: Good. Hong Kong?s Transition (1995) Wang Gungwu & Wong Siu-lun Oxford University Press Paperback A city on the brink, a future unwritten. In Hong Kong?s Transition , two of Asia?s most respected scholars ? Wang Gungwu and Wong Siu-lun ? explore the political, cultural, and historical forces that shaped Hong Kong?s precarious handover from British colony to Chinese Special Administrative Region. Written in the final lead-up to 1997, this sharp, clear-eyed analysis captures a moment of uncertainty, anticipation, and quiet defiance. More than just a policy manual or economic forecast, this book dives into identity, loyalty, and the tension between colonial legacy and regional destiny. With contributions that balance academic insight and readable commentary, Hong Kong?s Transition remains a crucial resource for anyone still trying to untangle what really happened ? and what still might. Available now in slightly yellowed, marginally annotated, fully fascinating condition from Crappy Old Books , where history is always gently creased and never out of print. Slightly warped, but otherwise in near new condition.
