"This book introduces North Americans to a distant island country of many ancient and complex cultures caught up in a headlong dash into the modern world economy. A sweeping survey chapter presents the history of the Indies, moving through patches of shadow and light, from the days of flourishing kingdoms on Java and Bali, through three centuries as a Dutch colony, to independence under two autocratic presidents. Changing economic systems and successive imported religions, including Christianity, are noted." Publisher's description.
