Excerpt from An Essay on the Civilisations of India, China JapanInstead of describing my journey in detail I have thought it will be more interesting to offer some re¿ections on the general spirit and character of the civilisations of India, China, and Japan, and the apparent and probable efiects upon these civilisations of contact with the West. Any conclusions one may arrive at on a subject so comprehensive are, of course, of the most tentative and hazardous kind, and what I set down here is-rather the starting point than the end of an inquiry. I shall not, however, waste time and space in constantly qualifying and apologising for my statements.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
