Recenzii

“The book is an exciting source of information about the historical geography of toponymic changes in the East Asian oceanic subregion. It is also largely successful in providing comprehensive historical analysis based on … a variety of cartographic sources. The volume can serve primarily academicians and students in geography, history, onomastics, and cognate fields of social sciences, as well as everyone interested in the (geo)politics of place names.” (Sergei Basik, Erdkunde, Vol. 78 (1), 2024)
