Product Information
This innovative book examines cross-cultural encounters before 1492, focusing in particular on the major cross-cultural influences that transformed Asia and Europe during this period: the ancient silk roads that linked China with the Roman Empire, the spread of the world religions, and the Mongol Empire of the thirteenth century. The author's goal throughout the work is to examine the conditions--political, social, economic, or cultural--that enable one culture to influence, mix with, or suppress another. On the basis of its global analysis, the book identifies several distinctive pattern of conversion, conflict, and compromise that emerged from cross-cultural encounters. In doing so, it elucidates that larger historical context of encounters between Europeans and other peoples in modern times. Old World Encounters is ideal for students of world geography, religion, and civilizations.

Garner, Southwest Texas State University, "An important book, one that few world civilizations teachers should bewithout, and one to build a course around."--Robert S. Babcock, HastingsCollege, "Looks like a wonderful global study of a process fundamental to world history. Will certainly enrich my course significantly."--Stephen Morillo, Wabash College, "Very good indeed....Bentley's book brings together lots of materialsknown only to specialists, and does so in an attractive way....The strength ofthe work is its devotion to a global approach to understanding culturalinterchanges."--Edmund Burke III, University of California, Santa Cruz, "A first-rate piece of work. Every student of early global history shouldread this book."--A.J. Andrea, University of Vermont, "...themes are treated by the author with skill, clarity, and, above all, brevity....Old World Encounters is a good introductory textbook for general courses on world history or Asian history."--The International History Review, "An outstanding example of cross-cultural methodology that adds relevance to the usually Eurocentric World History course.
