Third worlds : the politics of the Middle East and Africa

How and why did those empires gain such power, and lose it? What legacies did they leave? This major book brings together a team of distinguished historians and 200 illustrations to survey seven great Asian empires that rose and fell between 800 CE and the mid-20th century. Includes bibliographical references (pages 261-271) and index. x, 278 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm
