Reviews
"One of the many pleasures this volume offers is the community of scholars it represents. . . . The successful outcome proves that however difficult it might seem to write histories spanning cultural and linguistic zones, and however far out of their comfort zones scholars may be, collaborations do work and produce important volumes such as this one." -- Technology and Culture, " Entangled Itineraries-- with its breadth of topics; its attention to movement, exchange, translation, adaptation; its experimental mobilization of new heuristic concepts; and its expansive perspectives--opens up new frontiers in the study of human knowledge. It promises to provoke a major and positive reassessment in the field of history of science and will excite students and faculty in a variety of fields.

Synopsis
The Movement and Circulation of Materials, People, and Practices across the Eurasian Continent over Nearly Two Millennia, Trade flowed across Eurasia, around the Indian Ocean, and over the Mediterranean for millennia, but in the early modern period, larger parts of the globe became connected through these established trade routes. Knowledge, embodied in various people, materials, texts, objects, and practices, also moved and came together along these routes in hubs of exchange where different social and cultural groups intersected and interacted. Entangled Itineraries traces this movement of knowledge across the Eurasian continent from the early years of the Common Era to the nineteenth century, following local goods, techniques, tools, and writings as they traveled and transformed into new material and intellectual objects and ways of knowing. Focusing on nonlinear trajectories of knowledge in motion, this volume follows itineraries that weaved in and out of busy, crowded cosmopolitan cities in China; in the trade hubs of Kucha and Malacca; and in centers of Arabic scholarship, such as Reyy and Baghdad, which resonated in Bursa, Assam, and even as far as southern France. Contributors explore the many ways in which materials, practices, and knowledge systems were transformed and codified as they converged, swelled, at times disappeared, and often reemerged anew.

- d***u (2387)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoTook a while to arrive, but, great book at a great price, as described, good seller. Thanks! A previous book from this seller took only four days to be delivered, while this time it took nearly two weeks. Not sure what's up with that.
- u***u (748)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoCarefully packaged book- arrived wrapped in plastic bag and shipped in cardboard box. As a frequent book buyer I appreciate this as so many books are just crammed into a plastic shopping bag and sent on their way- sometimes always hanging out of the bag. I know that Midtown Book Seller books will arrive as described. Shipped promptly. I’d highly recommend them as a seller.World Film Locations: Singapore, , Very Good Book (N° 354968895445)
