<p>From the Publisher\nThe pioneering comprehensive work in English on late medieval Chinese foreign policy. The newly united China of Sui and Tang times confronted and attempted to exert hegemony over the nomadic Turks, the Tibetans and Three Kingdoms Korea. Dr. Pan shows how Sui and Tang drew inspiration from the tributary system of ancient and early medieval China, but adapted it pragmatically to fit new situations as they arose. After the disaster of the An Lushan rebellion of the 750s, Tang had to conclude equal treaties with frontier nations and even pay subsidies to some of them. This anticipated the new situation in which China found itself after the collapse of Tang and Song's restoration of a smaller united empire. Dr. Pan's discussion of the primary and secondary sources should be useful to future researchers of China's intercourse with foreign countries in late medieval times.</p>
