"In his monumental Central Asia, Adeeb Khalid puts the region at the 'crossroads of history'. A laboratory of colonialism, revolution, nation building and telescoped social and cultural transformation, it has experienced 'every achievement of modernity and every one of its disasters'."-Daniel Beer, Times Literary Supplement
"Khalid presents a masterful history of modern Central Asia which is at once scholarly, analytical and wonderfully accessible. . . .Adeeb Khalid deserves our gratitude for producing a path-breaking study of modern Central Asian history. One hopes it will pave the way for more."-Scott C. Levi, History Today
"The book is successful in revealing the two centuries of political, social and cultural history of the peoples of Central Asia, and serves to further progress knowledge about this region."-Mirzokhid Askarov, Ethnic and Racial Studies
"One of the newest and comprehensive studies on the region. It is a very broad and, at the same time, concise introduction to Central Asian history."-Marat Iliyasov, The Rest Journal
"Formidably detailed, Central Asia is ideal for upper-level students wondering how a chronically misunderstood region has been shaped by broad currents and dominant powers of modern world history, in concert with local actors."-Andrew M. Wender, World History Connected
