Description

Korea, long in the shadows of its neighbours China and Japan, is now the object of considerable interest.

This book focuses on answering several historical questions: what does it mean to be Korean?

How did this nation evolve into today's sharply contrasting societies?

And how does Korea fit into the larger narrative of world history?
