GORDON, Stewart: When Asia Was The World: Traveling Merchants, Scholars, Warriors, and Monks Who Created The "Riches of the East." N.P., Da Capo Press, 2009. Originally published: 2008.

Covers display a curve-like appearance. All pages clean, unmarked and almost new. A copy in near first-rate condition. "While European civilization stagnated in the "Dark Ages," Asia flourished as the wellspring of science, philosophy, and religion. Linked together by a web of spiritual, commercial, and intellectual connections, the distant regions of Asia's vast civilization, from Arabia to China, hummed with trade, international diplomacy, and the exchange of ideas." A compelling and unique look at Asia from the eighth to the sixteenth centuries-a time when Asia was the world-by relating the personal journeys of Asia's many travelers. ISBN: 9780306817397
