Encyclopedia of Chinese History

As China's global profile continues to rise in prominence, there is increasing interest in China, and the 3,000 year history of one of the world's earliest civilisations, particularly as previously restricted sources are opened up to researchers. The Encyclopedia of Chinese History covers the entire span of Chinese history, with a broad coverage that includes influential border regions such as Manchuria, Mongolia and Tibet, as well as the wider Chinese diaspora. In A-Z format and with entries written by experts in the field of Chinese studies the Encyclopedia will be an invaluable resource for students of Chinese history, politics and culture.
