The sun is setting on the Western world. Slowly but surely, the direction in which the world spins has reversed: where for the last five centuries the globe turned westwards on its axis, it now turns to the east.
For centuries, fame and fortune was to be found in the west - in the New World of the Americas. Today, it is the east which calls out to those in search of adventure and riches. The region stretching from eastern Europe and sweeping right across Central Asia deep into China and India, is taking centre stage in international politics, commerce and culture - and is shaping the modern world.
This region, the true centre of the earth, is obscure to many in the English-speaking world. Yet this is where civilization itself began, where the world's great religions were born and took root. The Silk Roads were no exotic series of connections, but networks that linked continents and oceans together. Along them flowed ideas, goods, disease and death. This was where empires were won - and where they were lost. As a new era emerges, the patterns of exchange are mirroring those that have criss-crossed Asia for millennia. The Silk Roads are rising again.
A major reassessment of world history, The Silk Roads is an important account of the forces that have shaped the global economy and the political renaissance in the re-emerging east.
英国伊朗石油纷争那里花了好大力气感觉太费笔墨了
评分居然找不到他的「The New Silk Roads」只好在這兒評價。一句話,這本「剪報」是作者從歷史學家轉型KOL的扛鼎之作。
评分感觉人物地名和线索繁多的历史书不合适听,如果有时间找来慢慢看也行收获会多些。
评分尤其喜欢中世纪到文艺复兴的部分,因为提供了难得的视角。
评分全是有个全新的视角的,主线还是丝绸之路,其实说的并不是丝绸,富含深意
