About this book
In the final volume of Asia Inside Out, a stellar interdisciplinary team of scholars shows the ways that itinerant groups criss-crossing the continent have transformed their culture and surroundings. Going beyond time and place, which animated the first two books, this third one looks at human beings on the move.
Reviews
Invites the reader to follow the fascinating journeys of a diverse array of ‘sojourners and seekers’…Scholars and serious-minded students of Asia will find the ground-level analysis of expansions and connections across time and territory in this volume fascinating and instructive…Helps us see more clearly the cross-regional and non-Sinocentric connectivities that knit Asia together today.
