Author Stewart Gordon has fashioned a fascinating and unique look at Asia from AD 700 to 1500, a time when Asia was the world, by describing the personal journeys of Asia's many travelers - the merchants who traded spices along the Silk Road, the apothecaries who exchanged medicine and knowledge from China to the Middle East, and the philosophers and holy men who crossed continents to explore and exchange ideas, books, science, and culture.

Only good as a substitute for melatonin

I fell asleep 63.5 times in the first chapter alone and another 12,762.345 times throughout the rest of the book. It’s more entertaining to read a literal dictionary than to read this book. I would legitimately rather read the terms and conditions of a game or update than read this book. This was so mind-numbingly boring that I would rather have listened to nails on a chalkboard than this “literature”. I have been more entertained at the doctors office than I was listening to this book. I believe this book was actually just an experimental way to make you fall asleep remotely.
