520    "We will live more and more in a world looking westward, 
       and we stand poised on the verge of what will truly be a 
       'Pacific century,'" says Frank Gibney, the author of this 
       masterly study of the history and political development of
       the Asia-Pacific countries. A definable image of the 
       Pacific Basin would include, on the eastern shore of the 
       ocean, the principal states of North America - Canada, the
       United States, and Mexico. On the western shore we have 
       China, Japan 
520    Russian Asia, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macao, both South and 
       North Korea, Indochina (Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos 
       included), and the ASEAN group - Indonesia, Malaysia, 
       Singapore, Thailand, the Philippines, and Brunei. 
       Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific islands round out 
       the list. Lavishly illustrated, with hundreds of black-and
       -white and color photographs, The Pacific Century traces 
       the past one hundred and fifty years of the Pacific Basin 
       region, from colonialism to. 
520    nationalism, from military clashes to economic ones. The 
       book also examines in depth the future of the Pacific 
       Basin - its social problems, pollution, population growth,
       trade friction, and immigration - as well as the growing 
       interdependence of the Asia-Pacific nations. As the author
       notes, "Our Pacific interconnections mark our common 
       destiny."
