内容説明

Southeast Asia: An introductory history has been the most widely read introduction to the region for over fifteen years and still retains its reputation as a highly readable survey of Southeast Asia's modern history. Clearly written and extensively illustrated with maps, prints and photographs, it has been revised and brought up-to-date for this seventh edition.

There is even an introduction to the art of the region and a guide to literature about Southeast Asia. Dr Milton Osborne's clear grasp of his subject reflects
