  <note>I have always liked this text because of its comprehensive coverage; its geographic focus; and its inclusion of South, Southeast, East, and Central Asia… The book continues tour e a tour de force.                                                        -Sue Gronewold, Kean University The tremendous strength of this text is that it affords a survey all of Asia. No other text does this as well or in the same way.                                                       -John F. Weinzierl, Lyon College. In the sixth edition of a History of Asia, leading scholar Rhoads Murphey integrates the complex and diverse political, social, intellectual, and economic histories of India, China, Southeast Asia, Central Asia, Korea, and Japan with an engaging and student friendly style. Popular for its scope and coverage, each chapter of this fascinating text contains important “Documents” and informative “Reading Across Cultures” feature boxes, which emphasize cross-cultural comparisons. Each chapter begins with a chronological listing of the events and topics discussed in the chapter. Discussion questions at the end of each chapter encourage lively class discussion and support students in their dynamic historical journey through Asia. </note>
