Reviews
"A very useful reference work for everybody who works on related topics . . . suitable for teaching classes . . . should not be missing in any sinological library of pre-modern Chinese history." -Angela Schottenhammer , Monumenta Serica 59 (2011), "It will be a real boon to have Fan's ethnographically rich work available for scholarly, classroom, and reference use. Hargett's annotated translation, with Chinese characters usefully included, constitutes a sinological tour de force. By translating and annotating the many technical terms clearly and accurately, Hargett not only makes Fan's observed world available To The Anglophone reader, he also makes its nomenclature clear to sinologists unfamiliar with the Chinese vocabulary of, say, insects, birds, and herbaceous plants and trees." -Paul Jakov Smith, Haverford College"I loved this book, both in the original and in Hargett's excellent translation, which captures the charm of Fan's prose. it provides a wealth of information about non-Chinese peoples and products of the southwest, a topic of interest to many China scholars." -Valerie Hansen, Yale University, "A major milestone in the field of sinology as well as in Hargett's prolific career. . . . We are indebted to Hargett for his precise, readable, and thoroughly researched translation of the Treatises." - Benjamin B. Ridgway , China Review International , Vol. 17:4, 2010
