Book Description:
|
Provides a truly comprehensive assessment of prospects for China's maritime development by situating important geostrategic phenomena within a larger world historical context. Too many works on China view the nation in isolation. To avoid this problem, the authors examine cases of attempted maritime transformation through the ages, from the Persian Empire to the Soviet Union.
