Most histories approach China's story through its dynasties, its struggles to defend its borders, and its internal politics. Gelber tells the country's story from the outside looking in, illuminating how foreign societies' concerns with China fit into their own interests and views of the world, while simultaneously looking at the recurring cycles of Chinese history, from turmoil and disorder to strong central government and back to turmoil." 492 pages.
