Reviews

'Said's approach, while characterized by exemplary scholarship and a remarkably broad canvas, is distinguished by what is essentially a neutral stance. He is more interested in the traffic of ideas between the East and the West than in taking sides in a struggle between them....this book opens out a number of important issues which deserve attention and further analysis'. New Zealand Journal of Asian Studies
