Its coverage of traditional Korea emphasizes cultural developments not merely as isolated expressions of the creative spirit of the people but as integrally related to Korea's political, social, and economic history. The book's preponderant concern is with the tumultuous modern era, and six academic specialists provide a wide-angle view of each distinct period. The authors succeed in elucidating the past while providing new understanding of the vast changes that have taken place in this ancient nation.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Ilchokak Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Korea Old and New: A History | Carter J Eckert | Paperback | 9780962771309 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks B 1778639","offer_id":49814851387544,"sku":"1778639","price":13.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/610sH31CGyL.jpg?v=1788541674","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/korea-old-and-new-a-history","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
