This essential single-volume history of the Pacific traces the global interactions and remarkable peoples that have connected these regions with each other and with Europe and the Indian Ocean, for millennia. From ancient canoe navigators, monumental civilisations, pirates and seaborne empires, to the rise of nuclear testing and global warming, Matt Matsuda ranges across the frontiers of colonial history, anthropology and Pacific Rim economics and politics, piecing together a history of the region. The book identifies and draws together the defining threads and extraordinary personal narratives which have contributed to this history, showing how localised contacts and contests have often blossomed into global struggles over colonialism, tourism and the rise of Asian economies. Drawing on Asian, Oceanian, European, American, ancient and modern narratives, the author assembles a fascinating Pacific region from a truly global perspective"--$$cProvided by publisher. 001398339 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001398339 651_0 $$aPacific Area$$xCivilization. 001398339 651_0 $$aPacific Area$$xHistory. 001398339 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aMatsuda, Matt K.$$tPacific worlds.$$dCambridge ; New York : Cambridge University Press, 2012$$z9780521887632$$w(DLC) 2011025055$$w(OCoLC)732627342 001398339 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete 001398339 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=862377$$zOnline Access 001398339 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:446093$$pGLOBAL_SET 001398339 980__ $$aEBOOK 001398339 980__ $$aBIB 001398339 982__ $$aEbook 001398339 983__ $$aOnline 001398339 994__ $$a92$$bISE
