Using the concept of boundaries; both physical and cultural; to explain the development of China’s maritime southeast and its interactions across maritime East Asia and the broader Asian Seas; this book offers a new way of understanding Chinese history in the late Imperial period. Ng Chin-keong examines social boundaries between “us†and “them;†challenges to rigid demarcations posed by the state; movements of people; goods; and ideas across borders and among cultures; and the line between tradition and innovation. The result is a novel way of understanding China’s relations with neighboring territories and people as well as the nature of tradition in China and its persistence in the face of changing circumstances.

It is an eloquent and powerful history of the Holy Land that empowers advocates of Israel to counter the biased and antisemitic arguments of those who wish to defame Israel in print and in public. Buy a copy and share with everyone you know and love!6 of 6 people found the following review helpful. EXPLAINS WHY DELEGITIMIZATION OF ISRAEL IS RACIST ANTI - SEMITISM; AND HOW TO FIGHT IT.By CustomerSuccinctly defies the problem of anti - Israel animus and provides practical ways to fight back. Deconstructs hysterical campus anti - Israel bias as anti Semitism; and provides persuasive arguments underlining Israel's success in remaining dedicated to the rule of law; maintaining an ethical civic society and democracy amidst the most virulent; prejudiced; concentrated p.r. attacks in recent history upon a true democracy.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Great review of the Jewish struggle in the last century.By Joanne BartoshI will re-read this book. There is so much I want to commit to memory. We forget and are no longer educated in this country about the existential struggle between good and evil. The PC police have us all cowed. Thanks for an awesome book!
