Eurasian Crossroads

Xinjiang was once the hub of Silk Road and the conduit through which Buddhism, Christianity, and Islam entered China. Drawing on primary sources in several Asian and European languages, this book presents a study of Xinjiang's history and people from antiquity onwards. It takes a balanced look at the position of Turkic Muslims within PRC.

Xinjiang a fost candva centrul Drumului Matasii si conducta prin care budismul, crestinismul si islamul au intrat in China. Bazandu-se pe surse primare in mai multe limbi asiatice si europene, aceasta carte prezinta un studiu al istoriei si al oamenilor din Xinjiang din antichitate incoace.
