From the publisher

Review: ‘Michael Charney’s new book is a timely and very welcome contribution to the study of Burma or Myanmar. A History of Modern Burma is an accessible, well organized, and extensively researched account of Burma’s recent past by one of today’s leading scholars in the field. At a time of increasing international awareness of Burma, the book will be of interest not only to students and researchers but to anyone wanting to learn more about the country. Dr Charney offers a balanced and factual survey of modern Burmese history, drawing on his deep understanding of the country’s past and a thorough knowledge of the existing literature.’ Thant Myint-U (press website)
