This is a quick primer on Occidentalism - how the east views the west. The coauthors show a broad cross-section of past and current occidentalist figures from Japan, Arab regions, Germany and Russia and their potent influence in world affairs. The amount of content in less than 150 pages is impressive and accessible as the chapters navigate Eastern perceptions of the city, capitalism and religion. This book is highly recommended for students and academics interested in the constructs and dynamics of east-west imagery, observation and relations.
