About The Book
SOCIONECONOPOLITICAL RELATIONS BETWEEN SOUTH INDIA AND CHINA, AD 502 1620 : WITH EMPHASIS ON THE FIFTEENTH CENTURY.
The content and methodology adopted for this volume is not the same as the earlier ones. It gives the local history of the various south Indian states based on the primary Chinese sources collected during the past several decades. A gist of the textual references in other Chinese works concerned with the southern part of India has also been provided. The influence of Buddhism which strengthened our linkage and also expanded Chinese sea-power have also been given in nutshell. In addition a short textual reference to south India in Chinese writings have been given in the Appendices which are five in number. The previous volumes of this series have received raving praises and are regarded as valuable sources for the scholars.
