1.History Of Asia- (Value Pack w MySearchLab)History Of Asia- (Value Pack w/MySearchLab)
from Prentice Hall
Price: $77.73

Customer Review:
This book is tripe.
I was assigned this book in my university class as part of my degree.
This book is impossible to muddle through.
The structure it takes, while following a time line, is not thorough in examining the time periods before it jumps locales and times.
It is... more info

INSIDE CENTRAL ASIA: A POLITICAL AND CULTURAL HISTORY OF UZBEKISTAN, TURKMENISTAN, KAZAKHSTAN, KYRGYZSTAN, TAJIKISTAN, TURKEY AND IRAN is a 'must' for any library strong in Asian history and culture, especially as these regions are typically given only cursory attention in favor of Japan, Korea and... more info

from Rutgers University Press
Price: $23.95

Customer Review:
As a decendant of the Central Asian nomads, I was impressed to read this book. It gave such details which made me feel as if the book was about my tribal Turkic nation. There is an expression in Kyrgyz language "to hang one's head on the sadle of a horse (in Kyrgyz: "bashty kanjygaga bailap". In our... more info

5.The Cambridge History of Southeast Asia, Vol. 2, Part 2: From World War II to the PresentThe Cambridge History of Southeast Asia, Vol. 2, Part 2: From World War II to the Present
from Cambridge University Press
Price: $29.74

Customer Review:
The thematic approach of the book deviates from the usual country-to-country approach espoused my most authors on the subject. It gives the reader a better understanding of the milestones and institutions of Souutheast Asia. It is more of a "why" and "how" approach, instead of the "who", "what", and... more info

6.East Asia: A Cultural, Social, and Political HistoryEast Asia: A Cultural, Social, and Political History
from Wadsworth Publishing
Price: $61.88

Customer Review:
I really think the price is far too high for what is in essence a history book which is more fitting for a senior high school student who wants to be introduced to pre-Modern East Asian history. I found "Genesis of East Asia" a much more interesting and engaging book which goes beyond merely stating... more info

7.East Asia: A New History (5th Edition)East Asia: A New History (5th Edition)
from Longman
Price: $59.85

Customer Review:
There are limited texts on East Asian history and it is unfortunate that this author decided to spike his with unabashed personal commentary. Overall, the content is impressive but some of Murphey's claims are hard to stomach.
An example of such outlandish claims is the theme in later chapters... more info

from Palgrave Macmillan
Price: $21.55

Customer Review:
For anyone looking to get more than just a glance at some gorgeous history, this is a great starting point. Although the book claims to be a short history, one should already have a decent understanding of at least one of the countries in which to weave this intricate web of history around. In my... more info

9.A Traveller s History of Southeast Asia (The Traveller s History Series)A Traveller's History of Southeast Asia (The Traveller's History Series)
from Interlink Books
Price: $10.01

Customer Review:
I wanted a general background of Southeast Asia before I traveled to Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam. This book was exactly what I was looking for. It leaves out Burma and the Philippines, but it goes all the way back to prehistoric tribal migrations and ancient language groups. I recommend it as a... more info

10.A History of Christianity in Asia, Vol. II: 1500-1900A History of Christianity in Asia, Vol. II: 1500-1900
from Orbis Books
Price: $22.77

Customer Review:
I was not aware of the terrible waves of persecution that decimated the early Christians in several of these Asian countries: Japan, Korea, China, Burma. Persecutions experienced by Christians in Asia today are not a new phenomenon but rather new chapters in an old book.
