This book is essential for any sinologist or academic working on China. Wilkinson outlines key historical themes and matters such as understanding Chinese names, weights and measures, currency, time telling, and cuisine to name only a select few. Of particular importance to the researcher is that each chapter has an extensive list of sources to which the researcher can go; also he organises key sources by dynasty or historical period. In all, an essential volume in the sinologist's library. ( ) Deze gids behandelt allerlei hulpmiddelen voor de periode tot 1949. Het is een reusachtig werk met een uitermate competente uitleg. Grote nadelen zijn het overdonderende effect van al deze informatie op de beginnende gebruiker en de illusie die daardoor wordt opgewekt dat alles hierin zou staan. Op het enorme gebied van de Chinese religie en mythologie, bijvoorbeeld, is dit geenszins het geval. Bovendien ontbreekt een serieuze inleiding tot het Internet volledig. De inhoudsopgave en de indices maken veel goed. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
