A vast region stretching roughly from the Volga River to Manchuria and the northern Chinese borderlands, Central Asia has been called the "pivot of history," a land where nomadic invaders and Silk Road traders changed the destinies of states that ringed its borders, including pre-modern Europe, the Middle East, and China. In Central Asia in World History, Peter B. Golden provides an engaging account of this important region, ranging from prehistory to the present, focusing largely on the unique melting pot of cultures that this region has produced over millennia. Golden describes the traders who braved the heat and cold along caravan routes to link East Asia and Europe; the Mongol Empire of Chinggis Khan and his successors, the largest contiguous land empire in history; the invention of gunpowder, which allowed the great sedentary empires to overcome the horse-based nomads; the power struggles of Russia and China, and later Russia and Britain, for control of the area. Finally, he discusses the region today, a key area that neighbors such geopolitical hot spots as Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and China.
我……终于看完了这一本…… 感觉对中亚有一些了解了,但还是迷迷糊糊的。因为以前没有接触过,所以果然这一本书只是交给我一些基础知识吧,更深入的了解要再去读其他的书。 还有三本书要看……
评分这一本可以说很好地体现了world history approach的优势和劣势。一本难得一见的1500年之后的历史没有占半本的书。
评分2011年夏季回臺時在飛機上讀的。
评分一字一句地读完了英文版。这是一部非常优秀的作品,严谨,客观,又不失趣味。这种平衡难以把握,作者却做到了。感谢这个世界还有这么好的书。
