Critiques

Not the best of the Cambridge histories. Relies too much on outdated and poorly cited sources, and probably due to its scope it's forced to be fairly abstract and comparative -- most of the chapters in this volume just aren't able to do the individual regions of Southeast Asia justice. Still gives a serviceable overview of a transformative period, which makes it basically irreplaceable if you're trying to establish timelines without relying on Wikipedia.

This is a 4 part series and not 1 book with 4 covers as Amazon seems to `think'. Interesting too.
