Recenzii
The book illuminates the dynamics that took place during negotiations during and after World War I, which provide disturbing justifications for present dynamics between Asia and the West, giving stark testimony to the ways historical events do indeed shape the future. ... [R]eaders wanting an overview of the complexity of dynamics the Great War provoked in Asia and the West will be impressed by the copious research and persuasive logic of this book.
[P]rovides important detail and introduces lesser-known materials regarding Asia's involvement in what was essentially a European war fought among imperial powers using imperial resources around the world.
