Vol 6 of the Cambridge History of China, ed. by Denis Twitchett and John K. Fairbank

This volume deals with four non-Chinese regimes: the Khitan dynasty of Liao; the Tangut state of Hsi Hsia; the Jurchen empire of Chin; the Mongolian Yuan dynasty that eventually engulfed China. It investigates the background from which these regimes emerged and shows how each set up viable institutions for the control of a multi-racial, multi-lingual, and multi-cultural population.
