Cr�ticas

..a wonderful reference book and an enlightening journey in itself' - Paul Theroux

This book is a Silk Road 'bible', a well constructed and beautiful collation of a mass of information and knowledge on a truly fascinating corner of the world. But be warned: read The Silk Road and you'll want to experience it for yourself....a feat worthy of accolades and to top it all off, the book is filled with excellent, and at times breathtaking, photography

Gseographical

A most handsome volume, admirable in scope and reliable in detail ...it will serve as a treasured compendium...

John Keay, THES

this is a book to fascinate...not only those interested in the past, but also those keen to understand the present.

Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society

This is a beautifully designed and produced work...undoubtedly one of the fullest and clearest- and certainly the best illustrated- introductions to this vast and bewildering subject.

Asian Affairs

an exquisitely produced major achievement...very highly recommended. --Minerva

Rese�a del editor

Stretching from the ancient Chinese capital of Xian across the expanses of Central Asia to Rome, the Silk Road was, for 1,500 years, a vibrant network of arteries that carried the lifeblood of nations across the world. Along a multitude of routes everything was exchanged: exotic goods, art, knowledge, religion, philosophy, disease and war. From the East came silk, precious stones, tea, jade, paper, porcelain, spices and cotton; from the West, horses, weapons, wool and linen, aromatics, entertainers and exotic animals. From its earliest beginnings in the days of Alexander the Great and the Han dynasty, the Silk Road expanded and evolved, reaching its peak during the Tang dynasty and the Byzantine Empire and gradually withering away with the decline of the Mongol Empire. In this beautifully illustrated book, which covers the China section of the Silk Road - from Xian through Loulan, Korla, Turfan and Khotan to Kashgar and onwards to India - Jonathan Tucker uses travellers' anecdotes and a wealth of literary and historical sources to celebrate the cultural heritage of the countries that lie along the Silk Road and illuminate the lives of those who once travelled through the very heart of the world.. NOTA: El libro no est� en espa�ol, sino en ingl�s.
