Reviews
For Seth (James Madison Univ.) new scholarship warranted a third edition of this volume. . . Each chapter is devoted to political and economic history with "asides" on social or cultural impacts, making the book useful for a general understanding of the region within concise parameters. . . Chapter essays on global perspectives are very well done, and the author's clear writing style provides an excellent means of examining Korea's history without being overburdened by excessive detail. The text is further supported by the inclusion of numerous primary sources and chapter notes as well as an annotated bibliography. Chapter 3 on the kingdom of Late Silla demonstrates Seth's ability to write a strong historical analysis of the era, introducing historians' sources and questions. Unfortunately, his later chapters do not reach the same level. . . Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-division undergraduates., Whenever I'm asked to recommend a textbook on Korean history, I always put Michael Seth's A Concise History of Korea at the top of my list. Now in its third edition, the book provides the most up-to-date survey of Korean history, introducing fresh research and interpretations.

The book arrived so fast, was better than its advertisement, had the best price of all including shipping, and was delivered by the post office, which I prefer. I will use this book seller again. The seller rated the book “good” but the book is pristine and like new except for a harmless square-inch scrape. I couldn’t be happier!
