Taking on issues of key importance in the understanding of Chinese history, Wood leads readers to a reconsideration of neo-Confucian thinkers of the Northern Sung dynasty.

Siep Stuurman. The Invention of Humanity
In this season of growing inequality, few books could be more timely than one focused on the origins and evolution of the concept of equality in world history. Siep Stuurman has undertaken the herculean task of exploring the emerging belief in the commonality of all humankind from the beginning of complex human societies to the present. The author is ambitious in his scope and impressive in his familiarity with cultural traditions from every corn…
Asian Democracy in World History
Taking a comparative approach, Alan T. Wood traces the evolution of democracy from its origins in prehistoric times and describes democratic growth in thirteen Asian countries from Japan in East Asia to Pakistan in South Asia and examines key issues such as: * How does the democratic experience in Asia, in countries with unique and totalitarian political traditions, compare with democracies worldwide?* Is the aspiration to freedom universal or is…

Jewish Identities
Well over a century has passed since Richard Wagner published his notorious Judaism in Music, yet the question of Jewishness in art music still receives much scholarly and popular attention. The idea that the music of Jewish composers must consciously or subconsciously express a vaguely defined ‘Jewish essence’ is one of the most persistent manifestations of this question; a notion that has endured well beyond the national-racial thinking of the …
