In this book a group of academics, specialising in Asian studies, seek to answer the question - what is Asia? They look at the construct from many different angles including that of the Buddhist preacher Angarika Dharmapala, 20th century Indian cartographers, sportsmen and women, missionaries, the United States, and Japanese Civil Society. In the final paper one of the editors looks to the Asia of the future, examining the rhetoric and claims of the dawning of the Asian century. 282 pages with a bibliography and index.
