Rezensionen / Stimmen
This book brings to life an unexplored subject in a critically important period of Chinese history in strikingly original way. It sheds light on the current debate of China's rise to a great power status in the 21st century. I recommend From Early Tang Court Debates to China's Peaceful Rise with enthusiasm. Suisheng Zhao, Editor of the Journal of Contemporary China and Professor of International Studies, University of Denver
