NEW SILK ROADS: PRESENT AND FUTURE OF THE WORLD (PB)

A revised and updated edition of the prescient contemporary history which provides a timely reminder that we live in a world that is profoundly interconnected. The world is changing dramatically and in an age of Brexit and Trump, the themes of isolation and fragmentation permeating the western world stand in sharp contrast to events along the Silk Roads, eastwards from Europe through to China, by way of Russia and the Middle East, where ties have been strengthened and mutual cooperation established. Important - and ultimately hopeful - it asks us to reread who we are and where we are in the world, illuminating the themes on which all our lives and livelihoods depend.
