Description
Book SynopsisThis student-friendly text details the fascinating history of how Asia has evolved from being little more than a geographic expression to becoming a vibrant, assertive region with an increasing impact on global political, economic, and security affairs.
Trade Review"This elegant synthesis of the major events and their interactions in the extraordinarily complex international politics of Asia after WWII is an important contribution. Tailor made for advanced courses on the history of Asian international relations, its readability and narrative structure also offer the general reader access to a historical perspective on a region that is transforming the world today."—Carla Freeman, PhD, Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies
"Alice Lyman Miller and Richard Wich have done a great service in this thorough and thoughtful volume. The historical depth, detailed analysis, and broad geographic scope of
Becoming Asia put it in a class by itself among the fine surveys of Asian international relations in the last century."—Robert Sutter, School of Foreign Service, Georgetown University
