Based upon current theories of Western experiences with modernization, these studies show that the Eastern changes do not conform to Western patterns.Originally published in 1967.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
