Written by experts, all contain highly informative introductory essays on the topic and detailed chronologies that, in some cases, cover vast historical time periods but still manage to heavily feature more recent events.
Brief AZ entries describe the main people, events, politics, social issues, institutions, and policies that make the topic unique, and entries are cross-referenced for ease of browsing. Extensive bibliographies are divided into several general subject areas, providing excellent access points for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more.

In memory of Nancy Bernkopf Tucker and Iris Chang, both
senior scholars of Chinese foreign affairs, and Terry Mills,
high school buddy and U.S. Marine, killed in Vietnam, 1965.
The Peoples Republic of China is one of the most dynamic countries in the world, with an active and indeed imaginative foreign policy and contacts with virtually every country and countless organizations. But that was not always the case. There were periods when it was much more inward looking, and others when its horizons were limited to other Communist countries, although throughout history the United States has always been in its field of vision, until the present, when it is everywhere doing rather incredible things. This could be accomplished not only because China has the second-largest population and second-largest economy in the world, but also because it has made up its mind to be a world player and a world leader. Gone are the days when, under Mao Zedong, it held back, and under his successors it played an ordinary role. Fast forward to the present day, when it wants to be a leader and, in fact, already is.
