Reviews
For Seth (James Madison Univ.) new scholarship warranted a third edition of this volume. . . Each chapter is devoted to political and economic history with "asides" on social or cultural impacts, making the book useful for a general understanding of the region within concise parameters. . . Chapter essays on global perspectives are very well done, and the author's clear writing style provides an excellent means of examining Korea's history without being overburdened by excessive detail. The text is further supported by the inclusion of numerous primary sources and chapter notes as well as an annotated bibliography. Chapter 3 on the kingdom of Late Silla demonstrates Seth's ability to write a strong historical analysis of the era, introducing historians' sources and questions. Unfortunately, his later chapters do not reach the same level. . . Summing Up: Recommended.
