Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The exploration of epidemics reveals their significant influence on modern Asia over the past two centuries. Robert Peckham examines how infectious diseases have shaped societies from India to China and the Russian Far East, intertwining biology with history and geopolitics. The book highlights the relationships between disease and key themes such as empire, modernization, nationalism, and trade. By viewing Asia's history through the lens of epidemics, Peckham offers a unique perspective on the complex interplay between material conditions and social-political processes in the region's transformation.
