Publisher's Synopsis

Stewart Gordon takes a look at Asia from 700 to 1500 AD by describing the personal journeys of Asia's many travellers: the merchants who traded spices along the Silk Road, the apothecaries who exchanged medicine and knowledge from China to the Middle East, and the philosophers and holy men who exchanged ideas, books, science and culture.
