DOWNLOAD EBOOK"With the goal of understanding China's future in a changing international landscape, this book offers a new picture of China's rise since the Age of Exploration and its historical impact on the modern world. The establishment of the Great Ming dynasty in 1368 was a monumental event in world history. A century before Columbus, Beijing sent a series of diplomatic missions across the South China Sea and Indian Ocean that paved the way for China's first modern global era. In 1368, Ali Humayun Akhtar maps China's ascendance from the embassies of Admiral Zheng He to the arrival of European mariners and the shock of the Opium Wars. In Akhtar's new picture of world history, China's current rise evokes an earlier epoch, one that sheds light on where Beijing is heading today. Spectacular accounts in Persian and Ottoman Turkish describe palaces of silk and jade in Beijing's Forbidden City. Malay legends recount stories of Chinese princesses in Melaka with gifts of porcelain and gold. During Europe's Age of Exploration, Iberian mariners charted new passages to China that the Dutch and British East India Companies transformed into lucrative tea routes. Among the ships' passengers were Italian Jesuits, whose linguistic skills facilitated book projects with local mapmakers and botanists published in Amsterdam. But there was a shift during the British Industrial Revolution, one that pointed to Europe's high-tech future. Across the British Empire, the rise of steam engines and factories allowed the export of the very commodities once imported from China. By the end of the Opium Wars and the arrival of Commodore Perry in Japan, Chinese and Japanese reformers called for their own industrial revolutions, one that would accelerate in the twentieth century. What has the world learned from China since the Ming, and how did China reemerge in the 1970s as a manufacturing superpower? Akhtar's book provides much-needed context for understanding China's rise today and the future of its connections with the West and a resurgent Asia"--

DOWNLOAD EBOOK"There are not many of us WWII POWs left now. I'm 96 years old and have outlived all of us captured by the Japanese on Guam the day after Pearl Harbor....All of us in Zentsuji and Osaka POW camps went through those 1368 days together. Not all of us made it home." Pete Marshall was the tenth of twelve children raised on a farm in rural Missouri during the Depression. After joining the Navy in 1939, he trained as a hospital corpsman and was stationed in Guam. The Japanese invaded Guam the day after Pearl Harbor was bombed. Pete was taken prisoner and sent to Japan for the duration of the war, living in primitive conditions with little food or medical supplies and working as slave labor. The stories illustrate how his childhood experiences helped him survive captivity. His POW experiences, so poignantly remembered here, had a continuing impact throughout his life.
